That station is about 2 miles from my house. Could still be the same people there. I eat regularly at Tequila Rose, a restaurant a short distance east of Penniman, and get Chinese take out and Subway's from the shopping center just west of Penniman. I live just east of the 199 overpass next to Williamsburg Country Club a couple of miles east of the Penniman intersection.
On the corner you are talking about there is a school on the northwest corner, a gas station on both the south and northeast corners, and a new WaWa on the southwest corner, so it's possible that the station you are talking about could have been where the WaWa is now, but I would guess that the two existing stations were probably one of the ones you are referring to, probably the southeast one, since they still have the older 60S and 70s cars there most of the time.
