Global Entry at IAD (Dulles)

After one clears immigration using Global Entry and then picks up one's luggage, is there a fast customs lane for Global Entry users? At my home airport, I have used the separate lane set aside for airline crew and GE holders. I'm now hoping that is the case at IAD (as that will be my next trip's port of entry). I need to hand over my bag to continue its trip to my home destination and I have a short connection time.

Yes, there is -- it's off to the right and there is a sign. I think the sign also says airline crew, but not sure.

Just went through IAD last Monday. After picking up your bags, and heading to customs, go to the far-leftmost lane (where I went...not sure if there is another line as yestravel mentioned). You won't miss it as it says "Global Entry". It has a very short line, and you will get through quickly even though the officer alternates getting the forms with the regular passengers.

We were at IAD on Oct 21 late afternoon. I think JoyC is correct that the sign is to go to the left after picking up luggage. However we were not "intermingled" or alternated with the non global entry passengers. Maybe they do it both ways depending upon the number of agents on duty.
