Does, will the train let you unload your bike at the Connellsville station?

Only if you are using the roll off service. If your bike is checked baggage you can only get it off at Pittsburgh or DC.

Has anyone tried to the Amtrak Roll-on/Roll off service from DC to Pittsburgh or the other way? I am planning a spring break trip. Not sure if I will have time to ride the entire GAP/C&O. I might want to jump off at an intermediate stop, any suggestions?

Yes I have tried it; and it was a no-brainer (I posted details in a recent thread). The intermediate stops are Rockville, Harper Ferry, Martinsburg, Cumberland, and Connellsville. Be sure to book early since there are only 7 racks.
