Airport to station
Fly into BWI, Dulles or DFW and ride straight to the rail platform. Pair a station transfer with airport transportation so one chauffeur handles both legs and tracks your flight.

Our train station car service is built for Amtrak and commuter-rail arrivals and departures at Baltimore Penn, BWI Rail, Alexandria, Richmond and the major Texas stations. A chauffeur meets you at the platform or the station entrance with a name sign, takes your bags and walks you to a vehicle that is already waiting, so you skip the taxi line and the rideshare pickup zone. We track your train the same way we track flights, and the chauffeur arrives 15 minutes before your scheduled pickup.
The service covers Washington DC, Virginia, Maryland and Texas. In DC we handle Union Station and the surrounding security zones; for a dedicated guide to that station, see our Union Station DC car service page. In Virginia we cover Alexandria, Richmond, Staples Mill Road and the Amtrak stops along the I-95 and I-81 corridors. In Maryland we run Baltimore Penn, BWI Rail and the MARC and Amtrak stations around Baltimore and the DC suburbs. In Texas we cover Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio, including the intermodal stations where Amtrak and local rail share a platform. Choose a luxury sedan for a solo traveler with two bags, a luxury SUV for a family with four suitcases, or a Mercedes Sprinter van for a team arriving together.

Planning
Which vehicle fits your train station car service booking?
Start with the number of riders, the amount of luggage and how far the station is from the final stop. The rows below match common rail arrivals to vehicles from our fleet; tell the reservation team your train number and arrival platform when you book.
| Who is riding | Recommended vehicles | Why it works |
|---|---|---|
| One traveler or a couple with two bags | Luxury Sedan | Easy curbside loading at the station and a quiet ride to the hotel or office. |
| Family of four to seven with checked bags | Luxury SUV | Room for four to eight bags behind the third row, no roof rack needed. |
| Small team or conference group of 10 to 15 | Mercedes Sprinter Van | Forward-facing captain's chairs, Wi-Fi and luggage space for a working ride. |

| School, church or convention group of 18 to 30 | Mini Bus | Reclining seats and a luggage hold keep a large arrival group on one schedule. |
| Delegation or sports team of up to 56 | Charter Bus | Under-floor bays swallow team gear, and one vehicle keeps the group together. |
Pricing
How much does a station transfer cost?
A station transfer is priced as a flat ride between the station and your destination, or by the hour if you need the chauffeur to wait through a meeting. Every quote is all-inclusive, with gratuity, tolls and fees explained upfront, and you receive it within 15 minutes of your request.
| Vehicle | Passengers | Minimum | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Luxury Sedan | Up to 3 | 3 hours | Quote in 15 minutes |
| Luxury SUV | Up to 7 | 3 hours | Quote in 15 minutes |
| Mercedes Sprinter Van | 10 to 15 | 3 hours | Quote in 15 minutes |
| Mini Bus | 18 to 30 | 3 hours | Quote in 15 minutes |
Included in every quote: chauffeur gratuity, tolls, fuel and parking. A longer distance, a peak weekday arrival, a station with limited vehicle access, or extra waiting time will raise the price; a short suburban transfer on a weekend will lower it.

Beyond the big day
Trips that pair with a station pickup
Most station bookings are one leg of a longer plan. Put the whole trip on one reservation and the same point of contact keeps every ride connected.
Multi-stop business days
A train arrival, two client meetings and a return to the station fit an hourly booking. See hourly limo service for a chauffeur held by the hour.
City-to-city by rail and car
Take the train one way and a car the other, or move a group between DC, Richmond and Baltimore without a flight. Our city to city car service covers the road leg.
Group rail arrivals
Convention delegations, sports teams and school groups arriving on the same train can travel on a mini bus or motor coach, with one driver and one drop-off point.
Wedding weekend arrivals
Out-of-town guests landing by train get a sedan or SUV to the hotel block, and a Sprinter limo moves the wedding party between the station and the venue.
Cruise connections
Amtrak to Baltimore or a Texas station often starts a cruise trip. Link the rail leg to our Baltimore cruise terminal car service or the Galveston option.

Station Pickups across Washington DC, Virginia, Maryland & Texas
Station Pickups in Washington, DC
Amtrak's Northeast Regional and Acela both land at Union Station on Massachusetts Avenue NE, and the taxi line on the Columbus Circle side can swallow twenty minutes on a Friday afternoon. Our chauffeurs meet you at the gate, take the bag and walk you to a car staged in the garage rather than circling the block. We plan around the Capitol Police security perimeter, the H Street construction closures and the rush-hour squeeze on North Capitol Street, and we build in the ten or fifteen minutes a late train adds. For arrivals into L'Enfant Plaza or a private car at Union Station, our Union Station DC car service covers the details of that terminal. Cherry blossom season and the January session start are the busiest weeks for train station car service in the District.
Station Pickups in Virginia
Virginia's rail map runs from Alexandria's Amtrak and VRE platforms up through Burke Centre, Manassas and Fredericksburg on the VRE lines, and down the I-95 corridor to Richmond's Main Street Station and Staples Mill Road. A chauffeur waiting at the curb beats hunting for parking near the platform, especially on Friday evenings when the VRE crowd and the Beltway merge into one long backup. On a train station pickup in Virginia, we watch the arrival board and adjust when a train runs late, which matters on the Fredericksburg line where a single delay cascades. Fall foliage weekends and the spring Virginia Garden Week bring heavier demand at Alexandria and Richmond, so book those dates early.
Station Pickups in Maryland
Baltimore Penn Station sits on Charles Street with limited curbside space, and BWI Rail Station handles both MARC and Amtrak on the Northeast Corridor, so the pickup point depends on which platform you use. We stage cars at both and confirm the meeting spot in writing before the trip. A&A Limousine also covers the MARC and Amtrak stops in Rockville, Silver Spring, New Carrollton and Aberdeen, plus the BWI terminal itself for travelers connecting from the train to a flight. Winter weather on I-95 and the Baltimore Beltway is the variable that most often changes a schedule, so we allow extra time from December through February and track the train rather than the clock. Preakness week and the fall convention calendar fill Baltimore hotels fast, and train station car service in Maryland books up around both.
Station Pickups in Texas
Texas rail travel means Amtrak's Texas Eagle through Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio, plus Houston's station on Washington Avenue and the new arrivals at Austin-Bergstrom and DFW for anyone connecting from a train to a flight. Distances are the real issue here: a pickup in Fort Worth for a Dallas hotel is a 35-minute run on I-30 when traffic cooperates, and Austin's I-35 construction can double that. AA Limo builds the drive time into the quote so you are not watching the meter while the train sits outside Temple. Summer heat means a cool car waiting at the curb rather than a walk to a distant lot, and spring festival weekends in Austin and San Antonio book out first.

FAQs
Train Station Car Service FAQs
How much does a train station pickup cost?
Pricing depends on the vehicle class, the distance from the station to your destination and the time of day. A sedan from Baltimore Penn to a downtown hotel is a different trip from a Sprinter from Union Station to Tysons. Send your train number, arrival time and drop-off address and we will return an all-inclusive quote, usually within 15 minutes, with gratuity, tolls and fees explained upfront.
How far in advance should I book a train station pickup?
Book at least 24 hours ahead for a standard station transfer, and earlier for holiday weekends, graduation season and large groups needing several vehicles. Same-day requests are often possible when vehicles are available, so call the reservation line if your plans change at short notice. Give the reservation team your train number so the chauffeur can track the arrival.
How does timing work if my train is delayed?
Your chauffeur tracks the train and adjusts the pickup to the actual arrival, so a late Amtrak or MARC service does not leave you standing at the curb or the car leaving without you. Give the reservation team your train number when you book. If you are rebooked onto a different service, call dispatch and we will move the pickup.
Can I bring alcohol in the vehicle after a train arrival?
Guests 21 and older may bring their own beverages in our limousines and party vehicles where state law allows, and we provide ice and glassware. Alcohol is never permitted for underage passengers. For a standard station transfer in a sedan or SUV, most travelers simply bring coffee and a suitcase.
What happens if my train arrives early?
The chauffeur arrives 15 minutes before the scheduled pickup and waits, so an early arrival usually means a shorter wait rather than a missed car. Call or text the chauffeur's number from the confirmation if you step off ahead of schedule. For a late arrival, the same tracking applies and the car stays with the trip.
Which vehicle should I choose for a station pickup?
A Luxury Sedan suits one or two travelers with luggage, while a Luxury SUV takes up to seven passengers and four to eight bags. Groups arriving on the same train often do better in a Mercedes Sprinter Van with captain's chairs and luggage space. Tell the reservation team the passenger count and bag count and we will match the vehicle.
Can you handle a group arriving on the same train?
Yes. Several vehicles can run under one reservation with one point of contact, which suits a conference delegation or a sports team stepping off at Baltimore Penn or Richmond. We confirm the meeting point at the platform in writing and send each chauffeur's name and contact details before pickup. A Mini Bus or Charter Bus covers larger parties.
Do you provide train station car service in DC, Virginia, Maryland and Texas?
Yes. This train station car service covers Union Station and the DC terminals, Alexandria, Richmond and the Virginia VRE stops, Baltimore Penn, BWI Rail and the Maryland MARC stations, and the Texas Eagle stops in Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio and Houston. Long-distance trips between these areas are available, and reservations run 24/7 at +1 888 583 0779.
