If there’s one thing that I enjoy more than sharing my own Slug Tales, it’s hearing the tales from others who also Slug.
Whether you are a commuter or not, the stories are usually pretty entertaining – and especially as a commuter, I can relate to some of the experiences my fellow Slugs have shared. Often times I’ll check my Facebook account during the morning commute, and every now and then I’ll run across a friend’s post, either complaining about a slow driver or dirty car, or enjoying the driver’s chosen radio station.
More passenger trains bound for the Potomac Communities will experience delays today.
