THE AZA FLEET
The Cadillac Escalade
Private transfers for business travelers, couples and small parties heading onward from the station.
Union Station serves different kinds of rail travelers. Each deserves the right transfer plan. AZA provides private ground transportation and does not operate Amtrak, MARC, VRE or Washington Metrorail services.
01
Amtrak station transfers
Connect Acela or Northeast Regional arrivals with a planned ride to downtown DC hotels, meetings, residences and regional destinations. Share your train details before traveling.
For delegations or organized groups reaching DC by commuter rail, arrange a common meeting point, suitable vehicle and onward route rather than splitting into separate cars.
Plan a private ride from a selected Metrorail stop to a hotel, workplace, event or another destination when group luggage, timing or access needs call for direct travel.
Share these before you book so the right vehicle and meeting point can be confirmed.

One station. Several entrances. Meet in the right place.
Union Station’s rail platforms, station hall, Metro access and vehicle areas are not the same meeting point. The exact location for your party should be confirmed with AZA before the trip, with instructions suited to your vehicle and current station traffic arrangements.
Amtrak lists pickup and drop-off access via the Massachusetts Avenue exit. That does not mean every vehicle type can use an identical stopping area. For coach and large shuttle groups, review the approved loading location with your transportation coordinator.
Check the official Union Station information from Amtrak for current station details. Follow your confirmed AZA driver instructions on the day; construction, security and traffic control may change access.
Not every traveler has the same final stop.
Plan station transfers around where your people actually need to go, rather than one generic route.
Union Station to Downtown DC
Hotels and business addresses near NoMa, Capitol Hill, downtown, Penn Quarter and the convention corridor. Allow for event traffic and access restrictions.
Union Station to Northern Virginia
Individual and group connections toward Arlington, Alexandria, National Landing and selected NoVA communities, using the pickup and destination you specify.
Union Station to Maryland
Discuss planned travel to Bethesda, Silver Spring and other Montgomery or Prince George's County destinations, with group size and luggage details included.
Keep workday connections organized.
A multi-person arrival takes more coordination than a single rideshare pickup. Teams commuting from rail may need transportation between a designated station, a workplace and a scheduled meeting location. Organizers can set shared pickup windows and supply passenger counts, shift timing and accessibility needs in advance.
