Yes.
Why don't you check the "Afternoon slug lines" tab on this site's Home page?
If you did, you'd see the following in an easier to read display:

Across the street to the east is the National Museum of American History.

SluDge - you're too kind... Now you've robbed EMC (and others) of any incentive to read/research before posting... :)

Okay. Let's put the sarcasm aside. I am aware of the 14th and Constitution stop; however, based on my other posts, I'm interested in learning about the stops further up 14th street. I apologize. I should have been more clear.

And let's not also forget the fact that on the Morning Lines: Rolling Valley page, 14th and New York is listed at the bottom of the page under returning PM slug lines. But I am hearing this line does not go to Rolling Valley. I am seeking clarification on a website that has not been updated recently.

EMC - you should have been more clear. You also should have only posted your question in one area as opposed to several. (reader and responder fatigue...)
That said, my recommendation is that you try the 14th and NY line to find out whether it goes to RV or not. Talking to people is certainly a good approach, but this system is so fluid that no one can say with 100% certainty what goes on at ALL times, on ALL days, at ALL lines, etc...
I'm afraid you'll just have to take that so called "leap of faith" and give it a shot. Try varying your times, if possible, to see what works. If the line doesn't go to RV, catch a ride to Bob's (then a bus) or walk to 14th & Constitution.
Good luck.

14 & NY (actually closer to 14 & H) does not go to RV. Bob's only.

emc,
Apology accepted. [:I]
Looks like somebody screwed up the RVM "afternoon return lines" info. [:0]
Also looks like you have at least two workable afternoon options now. You'll just need to walk a bit downtown or hop a bus at "Bob's" to get to RVM.
