I’m planning on taking the MARC to Baltimore on an upcoming Friday when I have the day off. I’m then going to bike back to Greenbelt park to camp for the night before the final short leg the following morning.
I know the Bike Washington website has a route between Baltimore and DC, but I’m wondering if anyone here has done this trip recently or has any other route suggestions.
Hope this worked out for you. As others mentioned, yes, MARC’s weekend Penn Line trains all have the bike car, albeit only from spring to fall. And even if the dedicated car is missing, the other coaches all accommodate bikes (2 per coach). No extra charge for the bike!

More folks should use MARC to visit Baltimore with bikes; Penn Station is a good starting point for trips. The Maryland Ave protected bike lane is one block away, and takes you to the Inner Harbor. Jones Falls trail is also a block away. Further out, the Fort McHenry Seawall Trail gives you a beautiful view of the Patapsco.
