Description

Thanks to Gary Gozart who adds: "This station is where my mother and I would wait for the Greyhound bus. We walked to it on a trail from near our home on Karjala Road.  I can remember her walking this muddy trail in the winter wearing hat and gloves and heels."
This photograph appears on page 59 of William D. Jones' "Motor Cars and Serv-Us Stations" under the number 15387. Book caption reads : "Central Park Texaco photographed January 20, 1938.
