The cheapest way is the Chinese buses. They go from Boston to DC via NYC. http://www.staticleap.com/chinatownbus/ My daughter used to go from Boston to NYC all the time for conferences.
My son took one from NYC to Baltimore and reported they played kung fu movies with English subtitles and it was a new bus
By the way, I found it cheaper to fly from Boston to DC than to take the train

Monuments and memorials, contemporary neighbourhoods, true regional taste this is what Washington, DC is; a location unlike every other; the same as this web site hotelbye . Washington it's your property abroad with free museums and America's entrance yard. Washington is acknowledged all over the world as a symbol of the United States. Here, the place you can't miss could be the Capitol. Capitol may be the seat of the House of Representatives and the Senate. The large dome, based on the dome of St. Peter's in Rome, stands out most importantly different Washington buildings. Like Washington it self, the making has developed over time since the central part was created between 1793 and 1812. The final supplement, in 1958-62, increased the key façade where presidents take the oath. On another area, a marble terrace presents lovely views on the mall and the city. The inside is resplendent with frescoes, reliefs, and paintings, especially the rotunda underneath the great cast-iron dome with a threshold painting by Constantino Brumidi and large paintings of views from American record on the walls.

Boston has a rich history and a varied neighbourhood; it has a heritage of arts, culture, and knowledge; Boston has anything for everybody so discover what Boston can offer you with hotelbye . The three-mile Freedom Trail brings you previous - and into - 16 of the city's principal traditional monuments and sites. It's easy to follow, by the line of red stones in the pavement and by footprints at road crossings. The path will get you to Old Granary Burying Ground where Paul Revere, Samuel Adams, and John Hancock are hidden; will get you to King's Chapel Burying Ground, the Boston's oldest cemetery; Old South Meeting House where the calling speeches of patriots spawned the Boston Tea Party and the Old State House, Boston's oldest community developing and the site of the Boston Massacre.

I fly between DC and Boston almost that often and always fly. There is frequent Amtrak service from South Station to Union Station in DC, but it's about an 8 hour trip each way on the regular regional trains and 6.5 hours on the faster Acela trains. But this is a long trip and it's more expensive than flying (Acela is considerably more expensive).

There are tons of flights between Boston and any of the major airports in the DC area. JetBlue and United fly from Logan nonstop to Dulles International Airport (IAD), which is 25-30 miles west of DC and is a fairly inconvenient airport. AirTran and Delta Airlines fly to Baltimore-Washington International Airport (BWI), which is probably 30 miles northeast of Washington. And USAirways, American Airlines and Delta Airlines all fly nonstop to Washington-Reagan National Airport (DCA), which is by far the most conveient airport to fly into for DC. It's less than 5 miles from downtown DC, and there's a Metro (DC subway) station literally connected to the airport terminal. Plus it's the smallest and easiest of the 3 major airports. Unfortunately, it's the most expensive of the 3 airports. BWI is the cheapest, in general. I have found flights as for as little as about $120 round trip into BWI. The USAirways Shuttle into DCA - they have hourly flights from Boston - is by far the best way to fly. They're very reliable, it's very easy to switch from one shuttle to another (like if you get to the airport in time for an earlier one they'll put you on it no problem). It's more expensive though - usually it's about $220 round trip if you book in advance.

Also keep in mind getting from the airport in DC to where you're going - I'm not sure if you're going to downtown DC or somewhere else in the DC area. Like if you're going to downtown DC, it might be worth it to pay a little more for a flight to DCA and take the subway downtown rather than flying to BWI and paying for a shuttle or something. Plus a lot more convenient.

If you are a student, I would recommend www.studentuniverse.com for inexpensive fares.

If not, I think your second best option would be jet blue - they have flights from dulles to logan

The thrid option would be the train - the acela is pretty quick and it's a comfortable ride, plus you can plug in your laptop so you can use the time to get some work done if need be.

I would take Amtrak from South Station to DC. The metroliner can get you from downtown to downtown in about the same time it takes to go to the airport, go through security, fly, and get from the airport to your destination.
