[PRCo] Re: more roamings: Clarksburg, WV

But Parkersburg AND Marietta city routes added to the interurban means
that Parkersburg - Marietta - Beverly (yes Marietta was in the middle of
the line, not the end), makes for a full day if not more.  

Can we consider an O'Dark-30 departure from Washington for Fairmount,
put one to two days on that, then drive over to Parkersburg or Marietta
for the night, and put in a full day there, then come home?  Sounds like
Friday-Saturday-Sunday?
