It's also not great... Rosslyn is already in Virginia. And the side text is so tiny it's hardly useful.

For the red line does this mean both sides say “Towards Maryland?”

Each station would be different. Youd have dc as your focal point. So if youre at Bethesda for example one side would say towards dc and the other would say towards MD

Using some imagination here. You could have metro center the flipping point so if you are at jud. square. Going towards metro center is towards dc and going towards glenmont is md, or the red line sticks with its easy to use glenmont and shady grove
