How many trains a day?

CUM has a train headed for DC show up once a day at 9:30am. Takes 3½ hours, which is about an hour longer than driving.

In the other direction to Pittsburgh leaves at 7:30pm and takes 4½ hours, more than 2 hours longer than driving.

The idea of DC to NYC being roughly as far away as Maryland to DC is kinda funny to me.

I guess that's just how the panhandle panhandles.

Not even one per day as far as I can tell.

The Amtrack website also mentions:

Known as Maryland's “Queen City,” Cumberland was an early gateway to the West. Today, it is a bustling arts center and popular stopover for cyclists using the trail network between Pittsburgh and Washington, D.C.
