Maybe. Then again, once upon a time, not all that long ago, it was the street

Hostetter's Cabins, Route 422, Palmyra, Pa

The "cabin" complex is one of the very, very early motels ?

If so, Rt422 in Pennsylvania would have been a lucrative place to have begun such a venture.

@ 1940 I recall staying in a "motor hotel" similar to the above in West Virginia or western Maryland. I was 6 or 7 and this was my first time to stay any place but my own bed. I thought it was real nice but you had to go outside to a different building to the bath room. No, it didn't have crescent moons on the door. It had regular bathroom fixtures. I also remember looking down the hillside behind the cabin and watching Murph's favorite animal (a bear and
2 cubs ) fishing in the stream. I wanted to go down the hill to get a closer look but my aunt ( who raised me) wouldn't let me.

I guess; maybe? 422 runs right through the middle of town - sort of due east of Harrisburg.....

I do hope good ol' Roy is catching those two pictures because those engines are beautiful.

Love to have models of either; that little H2 odd would be a great addition to the layout!
