I assume you mean the old way to call for information ?? 1-XXX-555-1212 ?? Insert area code and get info !!  Don`t know if they use it anymore !! I stopped using directory assistance when they started charging for the service !! I can look in the book same as they do and cheaper !!

Playing cards were available at truck stops for sale!  This stop is one of those that isn't only for truckers but for other travelers as recorded in an article on great truck stops - local news 1988.  Equipped to sell!  Most likely this may have changed names - now listed as Travel Centers of America.  Still a current number!
