ack, I used to have nightmares when I was a lid about those bulging sides cars* but still a very nice video, and I enjoyed it. 5 stars
*I had a nightmare where one of the AmTrak trains went by the station I was waiting it at high speed, and the train somehow created a powerful vaccuum which tried to suck me into it.
Thanks for the rating! When I was a kid my dad used to take me on trips on the MARC or Amtrak train from New Carrollton station. I remember that I used to be terrified of those high speed Metroliners that would fly through the station, and I would back away from the platform edge as far as possible. I remeber waiting for a MARC train at BWI once and a Metroliner was approaching, I ran all the way into the elevator/staircase tower. :-)
The MARC Penn Line (Perryville-Baltimore-DC) serves BWI hourly during the day and late night, and every 15min or so at rush hour. It is by far the most convenient (and quickest) way to get to BWI from DC. MARC doesn't run on the weekends though, but nearly every Northeast Corridor Amtrak train stops there, including the Acela Express. The Express bus isn't run by MARC, but by DC's Metro system from the Greenbelt Metro station, and in my opinion would take a good deal longer than MARC.
Interesting stuff! Gunna be on the MARC next year to come to BWI...

Does MARC actually serve BWI station? Where does it go? I need to get from BWI to downtown D.C. I thought it was just the MARC express bus?
