How far is it from the C& O towpath trailhead to the Amtrak station in Washington DC?

Looks like about 3 to 4 miles depending on which route you take, but it looks like Lock 1 is right around the Four Seasons Hotel and if you take the Pennsylvania Avenue route to K street, its about 3.2 miles on Google
2800 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20007

Head north toward Pennsylvania Avenue NW
7 s (66 ft)

Turn right onto Pennsylvania Avenue NW
2 min (0.4 mi)

At Washington Cir NW, take the 3rd exit onto K St NW
2 min (0.3 mi)

Continue to K St NW
5 min (1.0 mi)

Continue straight to stay on K St NW
1 min (0.2 mi)

Take Massachusetts Ave NW to Columbus Circle Northeast
7 min (1.1 mi)

Drive to Union Station Dr NE

DC is rather bike friendly. Plenty of bike lanes & once you get to the National Mall, it's a cake walk to cover a good chunk of the distance. pull up directions on google maps & pop in an earbud to help with navigation.
