I just thought of a brain teaser for all the old time drivers out there. Can anyone name all the original Truckstops of America locations before the mergers with Union 76 or Burns Bros. etc? I believe there were about 13 of them to start with but I might be wrong. This should make for some real thoughts when you have the time to sit and think. Some are still with us today and others were sold or closed. Good luck.

One at Russell road at the wi/il line on 94, bottom of the grapevine going north, exit 142 in OKC, think there was a small one in South Jersey on 295 at Carneys point, not sure if the old one in SE Atlanta was an original ta or not, baytown tx, think there was one on 85 in South Carolina I'm drawing a blank on some of the others.

The Only "Original" TA I know of is in Gary,In Now, TA Purchased just about all the 76's And How you determine what "Was" a 76 is simply go to the Bathrooms in every TA, If it has White and Pinkish Wall Tile, It was a former 76.
