It is possible, but that’s a very long commute. Most people who make it work go down for the whole week, and then come back on the weekends. You may want to look into flights – sometimes the commuter flights aren’t much different than the train prices.

    The trip between Penn Station NYC and Union Station Washington, DC, on the fastest ACELA train is 2 hours and 48 minutes (without delays) each way and cost $155.00 each way.
