Roadrunner Retreat 2016

Just outside the ghost town of Chambless California, on Route 66 as it crosses the Mojave lies the abandoned Road Runner Retreat gas station and restaurant.  The tall sign can be seen at a great distance, shouting out to travellers that a place grab a bite and fill up the gas tank, just as the needle was approaching red,  was just ahead.

Its been many years since anyone stopped here though, these ghosts of the road are slowly fading back into the land but immortalised here by Martin Brent and available as a limited edition of 25 A2 C Type prints and an open edition on A3
