I always end up here when traveling northbound on Interstate 95 (I-95) to visit friends in Baltimore or south of Baltimore. It's a convenient (and often necessary stop) to take a restroom break, get some food, and raise your caffeine levels. There are two official Historic Signs/Markers as you walk up to the entrance, penny smashers, coin-operated rides, restaurants, rest rooms and everything else imaginable.
