1 :
take the lightrail into bwi then take a cab or you can always just take the train from penn station to dc its not that expensive.heck id drive better yet take greyhoumd they usually do this on the cheap.
2 :
take the marc train, I think you can pick it up by the light rail stop by camden yards, so if you are downtown already, you can walk to the Marc
3 :
Save the hassle and take a cab or drive. The MARC trains don't run on the weekends, and Amtrak and Greyhound cost more than the half-tank of gas.
4 :
The best/easiest way would be Amtrak, which goes from Penn Station in Baltimore and goes to Union Station in Washington. The cost should be $15 or so and takes about 45 minutes. (Don't bother with the Acela high speed trains - they only save you about 10 minutes and cost nearly twice as much). Both train stations are in the downtown part of each city and connect to other local transit as well. There are several trains a day. Greyhound bus has even more frequent service than Amtrak. It costs only a couple dollars less, and takes about an hour to an hour and 15 minutes or so (depending on if there is a stop along the way). The major drawback is that the station in Washington is less convenient than Union Station. (Actually the same goes for Baltimore. Plus the bus stations are more sketchy than the train stations, and Amtrak is more pleasant in general). In any case, these options are going to probably be your best bet.
