This bus runs VERY frequently (about every 7 or 8 minutes during the day) and runs 24 hours (though it runs only every 30-60 minutes after midnight).
X8 Bus
Runs along Maryland Avenue from Union Station. Exit at 13th Street; Walk two blocks to H Street.
X9 Bus
Monday through Friday Express Bus serving H Street. Connects at metro Center and Gallery Place following the same route as the X2, but service ends at 6:30 pm.
