Hi, I am new to the slug lines and wanted to find out what was the earliest pick-up time in the morning for the slug lines going to the Pentagon Metro Station, picking up from Rolling Valley Commuter Lot and what is the last pick-up time, picking up from the Pentagon Metro Station going back to Rolling Valley Commuter Lot in the evening?
Thank-you,
Burke

A good estimation of earliest and latest times would be just before, and just after, the HOV restriction times on I-95/395. That's 6 to 9 in the mornings, and 3:30 to 6 in the afternoons. But it's most reliable to to use the lines inside those time periods. The more you are outside those time periods (especially at the end of each one)your chance of finding slugs to pick up, or finding a slug ride for yourself, becomes significantly less.
Good luck! [:)]

There's usually a line in place by 6am at RV.
Note that the drop off isn't the Metro station (per se), but the Pentagon itself. You'll have to walk to the Metro or to the bus bays.

I was wondering if the Rolling Valley slug line goes to Rosslyn? Is there a long line for that ride? What is the average travael time? Also if I needed, how long is travel time from there to pentagon? Any arlington Courthouse Slugs?
thank you

RV is good for Roslyn, though unpredictable. Sometimes there are more cars, sometimes riders have to wait. The 6:30 - 6:45 timeframe seems to be active. I suggest you give it a try to see if it works for you. Note though, that every day can be different.
Pentagon is probably 5-10 minutes on Metro from Roslyn.
I've never heard anyone call out Courthouse.
Good luck.
