The actual train trip from NYC to DC is 3-3.5 hours each way, and both ends are smack in the middle of the city.
If you’re flying, Dulles and BWI are 45 minutes from downtown DC (or more); ditto for the NYC end, and you need to factor in another hour+ for security. I think air travel might end up slower—-and it’s certainly less pleasant.
