Outside Rochester, NY along Route 15 there used to be a Gas Station, Drivein called if I remember right Gasateria.   This goes back to the late 1960s/early 1970s.  The slogan on the sign said Eat here and get gassed.   You ought to add a plasticville Drivein and gas pumps to your scene.

Close...! "El Rancho Gaseteria"... 1950's.  It's still there, but it's just a really big Kwik-Fill now.

Here is a couple of pictures of a 4'x8' portable layout. All of the hills and mountains and upperlevel are removable. I can even run scale length passenger cars from American models on the lower level. The lower level has American Model track and the upper level has S-Helper track.  overall view

I just recently picked up the Train-o-rama and it is in excellent condition. Here are a few more pictures, as can be seen there is still a lot of work to be done.

Love the White Castle, almost a good enuff of an excuse to make a trip to Vegas.
