I wasn't going to report this because I only gave it a half hour, but it was either Thurs. or Fri. of last week, I went out to L'Enfant with a Rt. 17 sign about 4:30p.m. I only waited 'til 5:00pm because I was getting nervous that I wouldn't get a ride at all and decided to go on to the Pentagon. No one for Rt. 17 came by.

Just to keep those of you interested up to date, I did not attempt to catch an afternoon slug ride to Rt. 17 from L'Enfant Plaza...all my days were longer than planned, and I didn't have the courage to waste time standing with a sign while I could be scurrying to the Pentagon to catch a sure thing. Therefore, I cannot report as to the status of the Rt. 17 line at L'Enfant...anyone else?

If you need a sign to show your destination, go to:
http://www.slug-lines.com/Downloads/downloads.htm

There are dozens of pre-made signs. I hope this helps.

Well, if I didn't have somewhere to be tonight I'd do it today, but I will definitely try it tomorrow afternoon (June 5 @ 4pm)...so if there are any drivers out there coming from L'Enfant going to Rt. 17, I'll be out there with a sign until 4:30pm max. I'll report the results after.

According to the home page on this website, under maps, there is a Rt. 17 line just behind the Rt. 610 line. The next time I'm not in a rush to get home, I'll give it a try with a sign and let you know. I would be out there about 4:30pm

I would love to exert patience and hang a sign out there, but after discussing it with some fellow L'Enfant Plaza folks, they seem resigned to the idea of taking Metro to Pentagon and catching their slug rides there. If anyone would care to declare that they too would be willing to give it a go (both riders and drivers) I'm game.

I was on D Street across from L'Enfant metro around 4:10 last night in the 610 slug line. Did not see a Rt. 17 line. Maybe there just wasn't anyone there. My suggestion would be to start a Rt. 17 line (if there isn't one yet) between the Springfield and 610 lines on D Street. Take a sign with you, and make sure that cars that drive by see it. You'd be amazed how many people stop when they see the signs. Will take a lot of patience though :) That's how we started the 610 line...word of mouth, signs, and postings to this site. If I notice any Rt. 17 people around, I'll post here again. Good luck.

Kevin, Didn't slug last night...was fortunate enough to get a ride back without having to slug. Will look for news about the 17 line tonight.
