Barstow Station McDonalds, United States

The American Barstow city has also its unusual symbol - a McDonald's restaurant, stylized as an old railway station. The location of the unusual restaurant is an old railway station, which has not been used for its intended purpose since 1955. Here, on dead-end tracks, several wagons were installed, in which dining rooms are located. The central hall of the restaurant is located in the restored building of the station.

Since ancient times Barstow has been an important crossroads, which is located on the intersection of the railroad tracks and the major highways. The founder of the original restaurant is a local resident Fred Rozenberg. As a legend tells, he has won a small bar at the railway station in a card game. The new owner decided to open on the site of a small and unremarkable McDonald's restaurant something more that could attract tourists to a miniature town.

Already by 1975, the reconstruction of the old railway station was completed. Nowadays, it is a famous landmark in California. It is noteworthy, that the original restaurant is now managed by the Rosenberg brothers. For them it has become a true family affair. In the old cars for the guests of the restaurant wonderful dining halls have been arranged, a special charm to which gives a preserved lighting system. Having settled at the window with a favourite hamburger, you can feel like a real traveller and for a moment move to the unique atmosphere of California in the middle of the 20th century.
