How does this work exactly ?...If I keep playing NW charcters from my hand do they come down at 0 eventually ?

No. Let's look at it like this. You play Jon Snow (Core) and he reduces the next Night's Watch you play by 1. So let's say you play Lost Ranger (RotO) next. He is reduced by 1 to 0. He also reduces the next Night's Watch you play by 1. So you play Maester Aemon (Core) next and he is reduced by 1 to 1. Pretty much the next Night's Watch character you play uses the reduction but creates a new reduction for the next Night's Watch.

When combined with The Wall (TWoW), after a Bara character enters play you'd be able to trigger Castle Black, but only to bring in an actual Night's Watch character from hand since Bara characters only gain the trait the moment they enter play.

If I play a Night's Watch character as a duplicate, does this still trigger? I'm thinking it does because when I am playing it "from my hand" it has the Night's Watch trait and does not become a duplicate until it is attached to the character in play?

No, it does not trigger. Duplicates enter play as duplicates. (If they entered play as characters, and only became duplicates after being attached/entering play, you'd be breaking the rules that say you cannot play another copy of the unique character.) You are considered to be playing a duplicate, not a character.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. So I guess that means that playing Old Bear's Crow as a duplicate doesn't trigger Samwell either. Damn it.
