IMO you'll be a perfect target for a theif!!!
Me and one of my girls have fell asleep riding on the train at 4am after partying at a club in Manhattan and never had any problems. I usually don't fall asleep on the train but that night I had too many long island iced teas. It's really not as bad as you think riding on the train you may be a bit overwhelmed at first if your not use to it but once you have been riding awhile you get use to it. You don't totally let your guard down but you become more relaxed.

Yeah I know it wasn't too many people on the train but it was more than I would have expected at 4am we usually take a cab but that night we rode the train. The only problem was we almost missed our stop lol we woke up as the doors were opening lol.

I have been to DC alot of times but never rode the trains I heard they were nice. I used to live in VA plus I have fam in MD. Are u from DC?

I know what you mean but I used to live in Reston, VA are you familiar with it? I loved the area it was just too expensive for me you couldn't find a 1bdr for less than $1000. I loved how close it was to DC I used to drive out to the Jefferson Memorial all the time and just relax because it had the view of the water I would sit out there and listen to music or read it was nice lol. Plus it was the only place I could get to by myself in DC w/o gettin lost.
