Truck stop grave yard

The poker room down stairs that most people did'nt know about,The hookers who had 3 shifts going there. Oh yea. The good old. days.....

 

That woulda been myb kind of dive

 

Believe it or not, in a way it was a neat little dive. But towards the end it got way out of control. They just were'nt keeping it on the quiet side.
To me their down fall was to much in your face happening..
Plus I guess the owner got in some IRS issues big time, so the story went

 

Green shingle truck stop, Fairview PA. Had a great restaurant, showers, nice place to shut down at before heading into upstate ny. Got bought out and ruined by Dixie truckers home.

 

No such thing as a truck stop anymore. Thing of the past soon every hint of our lifestyle will be forgotten.

 

The Newell Travel Plaza in Newton, KS still has that old truckstop feel to it.

 

There's a really old school truckstop at the 115 exit on I 25 in New Mexico. Santa Fe Truckstop and Diner. Dates back to when US85 was the main route between El Paso and Albuquerque.

 

#### right.

Someone mentioned the All-American in Carlisle, PA in another thread as a great place to hang out, so true. All these so-called truckstops like Pilot with just a fast food outlet suck. But then in these days of increased productivity the layovers of days past don't really happen anymore either. At least they don't for my company anyway.

 

The all American. That was the one next to the Kenworth dealership on US 11 right?
