The Rohm & Haas Plastics Lab in Bristol, PA has drums of Plexiglas Molding Powder for injection molding as well as 4x8 sheets of paper masked Plexiglas sheet. I once worked in R&H's lab. There is even a Rohm & Haas tank car on the tracks.

White Castle is selling burgers for 5¢ each at the trolley stop on the middle level. There is a 1950 Chevrolet sedan parked out front. Behind it is a car carrier hauling a '56 Chevrolet Nomad station wagon, a '51 Volkswagen Beetle and a white '57 Thunderbird. The lower level of the carrier contains a red '57 Chevy Bel Air hardtop and a maroon 1950 Mercury coupe. Parked behind the car carrier is a turquoise '48 Ford woody wagon.
