The Brunswick Line is a MARC
commuter rail line consisting of a main line running from Washington D.C. to Martinsburg, West Virginia
and a branch line from just south of Point-of-Rocks station
to Frederick, Maryland
. The service is operated under contract by CSX Transportation
, but is administered by MARC, a service of the Maryland Transit Administration
(MTA). The Brunswick Line is MARC's longest line, and operates over CSX's Metropolitan, Old Main Line, and Cumberland Subdivision
s. It is the successor to commuter services provided by the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad (B&O) as long ago as the mid-19th century. In 1971, Amtrak acquired passenger service from the B&O and established the Blue Ridge
line in 1973. In 1983, Maryland
, along with a number of other Northeastern states, took control of its commuter railroads and the "MARC" (Maryland Area Regional Commuter) service name was established. The Brunswick Line wasn't acquired from Amtrak until 1986.
) is a diesel-only line. All trains are 3-6 cars long with a single diesel locomotive
in push-pull

, with 2 inbounds and 3 outbounds going all the way to/from Martinsburg, WV. Meet-the-MARC Shuttle Bus connects Frederick with all trains that do not service Frederick directly (via Point of Rocks).
Amtrak's Capitol Limited, which runs daily in both directions between Chicago
and Washington, D.C., uses the same trackage as the Brunswick Line and shares stations with MARC at Martinsburg, Harpers Ferry
, Rockville
, and Union Station. Connections are also available to the Washington Metro Red Line
at Rockville, Silver Spring
, and Union stations.
Trains are operated by CSX Transportation
, although MARC announced in early May 2010 that it planned to find a new operator for the line, as well as for the Camden Line
after CSX announced its desire to leave the business of operating commuter trains.
