Amtrak and MARC arrivals
Chauffeurs track train numbers and adjust for delays on the Northeast Corridor, so a late Acela does not leave you waiting on the platform. Pair the pickup with point to point service for a single door-to-door ride.

Our Union Station DC car service is built for Amtrak and MARC travelers who want a chauffeur waiting when the train arrives, not a taxi line on Massachusetts Avenue. We track your train, meet you at the designated pickup area, and drive you to hotels, offices, Capitol Hill meetings or homes across the region. The service runs in New York, New Jersey, Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia and Texas, and long-distance trips between them are available.
Book a luxury sedan for a solo business trip or a luxury SUV for a family with luggage. Groups arriving for a conference can use a Mercedes Sprinter Van or a mini bus, and we can coordinate multiple vehicles under one reservation. For onward travel, pair your pickup with our point-to-point limo service or a city-to-city car service to continue by road.

Planning
Which vehicle fits your Union Station pickup?
Union Station sits between Capitol Hill and NoMa, and the vehicle that works best depends on how many people step off the train and how much luggage comes with them. Match your group to a class below, then compare every option on our fleet page before you request a quote.
| Who is riding | Recommended vehicles | Why it works |
|---|---|---|
| Solo traveler or couple off an Acela | Luxury sedan | Up to 3 passengers with 2–3 suitcases; quick curbside load on Columbus Circle. |
| Family of four with checked bags | Luxury SUV | Seats up to 7 with room for 4–8 bags, so nobody rides with a suitcase on their lap. |
| Small team arriving on the same train | Mercedes Sprinter Van | Captain's chairs, Wi-Fi and luggage space for 10 to 15 riders heading to one meeting. |
| Wedding party or reunion group | Sprinter Limo or stretch limousine | Perimeter seating and a bar area for 10 to 14, or wraparound leather for 8 to 10. |

Beyond the big day
Trips that start or end at Union Station
Most Union Station bookings are one leg of a longer trip, so the same reservation can cover the ride to the station and the ride home.
Capitol Hill meetings
Union Station is a short ride from the Senate office buildings and K Street, which makes it a practical arrival point for a day of meetings. See corporate limo service for accounts with monthly billing.
Airport connections
Reagan National is one stop away on Metro, but a sedan or SUV handles luggage better for early flights. Our airport transportation includes flight tracking and 60 minutes of free wait time on domestic arrivals.
Cruise departures
Travelers taking the train down from New York or Philadelphia often continue to Baltimore's cruise terminal the same morning. Book a Baltimore cruise terminal car service to connect the two legs.
Monument tours
An evening pickup at the station works well for a private drive past the Capitol, the Lincoln Memorial and the Tidal Basin. A city tour limo service keeps the group together after a day of walking.
Long-distance rail-and-road trips
Some groups take the train one way and a vehicle the other, such as DC to New York or DC to Dallas. See city to city car service for the road leg.
Locations
Union Station Transfers across New York, New Jersey, DC, Maryland, Virginia & Texas
Union Station Car Service in New York
Travelers arriving at Washington Union Station from New York often connect the same day, so we time pickups to the actual arrival of Amtrak's Acela and Northeast Regional trains rather than a fixed clock. If your trip starts in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Long Island or Westchester, we can drive you to Moynihan Train Hall or pick you up at Union Station and continue south. Northbound runs from DC to New York use I-95 through New Jersey and Delaware, and we build in extra time on Friday afternoons and summer holiday weekends. For groups coming off the train, a Mercedes Sprinter Van keeps luggage together, while a Luxury Sedan suits a single traveler heading to a Capitol Hill meeting.
Union Station Car Service in New Jersey
New Jersey riders use Union Station as the southern anchor of the Northeast Corridor, with Amtrak and NJ Transit feeding in from Newark, Trenton, Princeton and the Shore. Our A&A Limousine chauffeurs meet trains at the station's taxi and rideshare level and handle the luggage while you walk out. For a ride that continues into New Jersey, we plan around the New Jersey Turnpike and I-295, allowing extra time on Sunday evenings when shore traffic returns north. Groups heading to a conference in DC often book a Mini Bus from a Jersey hotel to the station, then a sedan on arrival, all under one reservation.
Union Station Car Service in Washington, DC
Union Station sits a few blocks from the Capitol, and its pickup areas are busy, tightly managed and easy to misread on a first visit. A chauffeur who knows the station meets you at the designated passenger pickup zone on the Columbus Circle side, tracks your train and waits while you collect bags. That is the practical case for a dedicated Union Station DC car service: no circling, no guessing which level your driver is on. From there we run to Georgetown, Capitol Hill, the Wharf, K Street and the convention center, and we plan around security closures and rush hour on the numbered streets. Late trains are common, so we monitor arrival times rather than charging ahead.
Union Station Car Service in Maryland
Maryland travelers reach Union Station by MARC from Baltimore, BWI, College Park and Silver Spring, and by Amtrak from Annapolis Junction and Rockville. We meet those trains at the station and drive onward to Bethesda, Columbia, Annapolis or the Inner Harbor, or reverse the trip for a morning meeting in DC. On the Baltimore and Capital Beltways, rush hour can double a short drive, so we set pickup times from your train rather than from a fixed schedule. Groups heading to a convention at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center often combine a Mini Bus from a Maryland hotel with a sedan transfer at the station, keeping one point of contact for the whole day. A&A Limousine Service sends chauffeur details before pickup.
Union Station Car Service in Virginia
Virginia riders connect to Union Station through Amtrak's Northeast Regional and Carolinian services from Alexandria, Richmond, Fredericksburg and beyond, and through VRE at L'Enfant Plaza and Union Station itself. From Arlington, Tysons, Reston, Fairfax and Loudoun County, we often drive clients to the station for a morning Acela and collect them on the return, with the same chauffeur if the schedule allows. I-66 and the Capital Beltway set the timing, and we allow extra room on weekday mornings and during major events at the Pentagon or along the Mall. For a group arriving by train and heading to Virginia wine country, a Sprinter Limo keeps the party together with luggage stowed.
Union Station Car Service in Texas
Texas travelers use Union Station as a DC arrival point on long-distance Amtrak routes and as a connection after flying into Reagan National, Dulles or BWI. For a group flying in from Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin or San Antonio, we meet the flight, drive to the station, and continue by road or rail, all on one reservation. The same applies in reverse: our chauffeurs can collect you at the station and run you to the airport for a Texas-bound flight. Because Texas trips often involve several people and several bags, a Luxury SUV or Mercedes Sprinter Van is the usual choice, and we confirm luggage capacity when you book.

FAQs
Union Station Transfer FAQs
How much does a Union Station DC car service cost?
Pricing depends on the vehicle class, the distance and the time of day. A sedan from Union Station to Capitol Hill or Georgetown costs less than an SUV to Tysons or a Sprinter to Baltimore, and airport runs carry different tolls. Send your train number, arrival time and destination and we will return an all-inclusive quote, usually within 15 minutes.
How far in advance should I book a pickup at Union Station?
For airport and station transfers, 24 hours ahead is comfortable. Same-day bookings are often possible when vehicles are available, so call if your train is already moving. For group travel with a Mini Bus or Charter Bus, book several days ahead so the right vehicle is assigned and the schedule is confirmed in writing.
How does timing work if my train is late?
We track your train and adjust the pickup to the actual arrival, so a delayed Acela does not leave a chauffeur waiting on the wrong schedule. Your chauffeur arrives 15 minutes before pickup and contacts you with name and details beforehand. Tell the reservation team your train number when you book.
Where does the chauffeur meet me at Union Station?
Your chauffeur meets you at the passenger pickup area on the Columbus Circle side of the station, with your name if you request a meet-and-greet. Confirm the exact spot in your written confirmation, since construction and event closures can shift the zone. Call the dispatch line if you cannot find the vehicle.
Can you handle a group arriving by Amtrak with a lot of luggage?
Yes. A Mercedes Sprinter Van carries 10 to 15 passengers with generous luggage space, and a Mini Bus or Charter Bus handles larger groups. Several vehicles can run under one reservation with one point of contact, which suits conference groups and sports teams arriving together. Tell the reservation team the bag count when you book.
Which vehicle should I choose for a Union Station pickup?
A Luxury Sedan suits one to three travelers with light luggage. A Luxury SUV fits up to seven passengers and four to eight bags, which covers most families. For wedding parties, wine tours or nights out, the Stretch Limousine and Sprinter Limo add space and seating, and the full fleet lists every class.
Can I book this service to the airport?
Yes. We run from Union Station to Reagan National, Dulles and BWI, with flight tracking and 60 minutes of free wait time for domestic arrivals. Allow extra time on weekday mornings for I-395 and the George Washington Memorial Parkway. Book the airport leg with your train arrival in one reservation.
Do you provide Union Station pickups in all six states?
Yes. We cover New York, New Jersey, Washington DC, Maryland, Virginia and Texas, including long-distance trips between them. A train into Union Station can connect to a ride to Manhattan, Newark, Annapolis, Tysons or a Texas flight, all booked through one company. Call 24/7 or use the online quote form.
