As the airport is the terminus of that line you cant take the wrong train which is pretty helpful for tourists.

They're on the same tracks and I'd call MARC more of a heavy-rail commuter service (like Caltrain), but BWI does have both a local/commuter and long-distance service.
GVA also has both, assuming the local trams (which run on tracks) count as light rail.

No, sorry, but GVA has the heavy rail link only and normal bus services. There are no trams going to the airport.

You don't even have to "stretch the definition" of light rail for BWI; the Baltimore light rail has a stop inside the International Pier (E) at BWI.
