As stated, there is a Virginia Railway Express station on the north
side of the airport, a bit of a hike, but is easily walkable from
Dulles Aviation on the west side (tower will ask if you are parking
east or west side on approach before assigning a runway...) Much
longer hike from the east side FBO.

VRE schedules are posted, but it is strictly a commuter train. That
means NO weekend service, and only morning and evening rush hour
service. It is about an hour train ride to the district from the
"Broad Run / Airport" station.

The VRE stops in Crystal City, VA if you need to get to the Pentagon,
and L'Enfant Plaza and Union Station in the District. Check out WWW
dot VRE dot ORG for schedules and fares.

There really isn't any GA airport convenient to Metro anymore. VKX is
still open, but you have to go through a complete background check and
fingerprinting to use...

The other option would be Gaithersburg, but again you are renting a
car.

There are cars available right at KHEF if needed. Last train back from
Union Station is 18:50 I believe. If you miss that one, you would be
best served taking the Metro to the end of the Orange line, then
picking up a cab from there, but it will still hurt...

Good luck.

HEF has commuter trains into DC. Call the local FBOs for schedules. JYO
is an option but you will have to rent a car. IAD is also an option if
you do not mind paying through the nose for parking.
