208 slug line

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I see that there is a new slug line forming at the 208 commuter lot.  My question is where is the line forming at the Pentagon to get back to 208?  Is there one?  If there is, I'd try it in a heartbeat.  I was in the Pentagon Gordon Road line a while back and a person drove up and said he was looking for someone interested in going to 208.  Of course, since I was parked at Gordon Road, I couldn't oblige, but if a line was established at the Pentagon for 208, that would make a difference.

	What exactly do you "see"? Do you actually see people at the 208 lot? I am tired of posting about 208 and having no one answer. This is getting old.

	If you're asking what I meant by "I see that there . . .," I mean that on the Home page of this website there was an item about a new slug line at 208. No, I've never seen slugs there. I've only heard the person I wrote about asking at the Pentagon line. I agree with you. It's annoying that people don't respond. My post appears to have been read 151 times with no response. Oh well, I guess the 208 line is never going to take off.

	Yep, that is exactly what I was asking. I guess you are right! quote: Originally posted by CBlue If you're asking what I meant by "I see that there . . .," I mean that on the Home page of this website there was an item about a new slug line at 208.

I think you are better off when people don't muddy the water with useless responses. When I read a post, if I don't have anything substantive to add, then I just don't post anything, but I'll give you a useless response below just to make you feel loved. [:)] I don't know anything about the 208 line. I don't even know where 208 is.

	Point taken, mycroftt. I just hoped that somebody would read it that did know something about the 208 line, and would respond. No, I don't need useless responses. But thanks for the smiley face!

	Mystery solved! [;)] Quoted from Wikipedia: "Virginia State Route 208 (SR 208) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of Virginia. The state highway runs 47.35 miles (76.20 km) from U.S. Route 250 (US 250) at Ferncliff east to US 1 and US 1 Business at Four Mile Fork. SR 208 is a major southwestnortheast highway through Louisa and Spotsylvania counties. The state highway connects the counties' respective seats of Louisa and Spotsylvania Courthouse, where the old route of the highway is SR 208 Business, with each other and with Fredericksburg near the highway's eastern terminus. SR 208 also has a direct connection with Interstate 64 (I-95) at Ferncliff and an indirect connection to I-95 near Fredericksburg."

	So does anyone know the answer to this question yet. :-) As a previous poster said I see 208 on the main page but I have yet to dare try it and be stuck in the afternoon.
