Washington Grove station

Washington Grove is a passenger rail station in Washington Grove, Maryland, on MARC Train's Brunswick Line.[3] The station serves a historic community near Washington, D.C. that was a summer retreat for many of its citizens during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, but that recently have become year-round residences without destroying the outward appearance of the original structures in the community. Originally the rail connection provided the transportation to the community, which is designed only for pedestrian use along footpaths.

gollark: Schools would be replaced with large warehouse-type spaces with computers, vaguely intelligent-looking adults and arbitrarily large quantities of children in them.
gollark: The profit margin cap on companies is obviously stupid. Instead, clones of me (technology TODO) would be authorized to randomly inspect and restructure companies to make them work better.
gollark: In the interests of fairness (treating people how they want to be treated), the death penalty would only be used on people who had previously supported the death penalty.
gollark: So I would instead assign a quota for *total* health, and distribute healthcare to maximize that.
gollark: Free healthcare would just encourage people to get too much healthcare, so they would be too healthy.
