more bathrooms along the way!
Think of the women who would feel WAY MORE comfortable driving the Lincoln highway if they knew there were CLEAN bathrooms possibly hooked up to police sub stations.
clean bathrooms + safe bathrooms + women = $$$ for local businesses

Hello:
Does anyone have a photo of the old Lincoln Diner in downtown Chambersburg? When I was a little kid, we lived in Chambersburg near it, but can’t remember the address….
Although, to tell you the truth, I am not sure that it WAS the Lincoln Diner. It was downtown, with houses near it, but it wasn’t made of stainless steel or anything, it was wood, I think.
Also, does anyone remember a Greyhound Bus Station somewhere on Lincoln Highway right outside of town?
Nostalgia! I’d love to see some photos if anyone has them. May have to go back to Chambersburg to the Historical Society to see if there are any pictures in their library.
Thanks!
