James E. Strates Carnival Shows
Title:  James E. Strates Carnival Shows
Description:  CSX 4824 leads P920-24 James E. Strates Carnival Shows past the old Tastykake bakery complex in Philadelphia. A new Tastykake baking facility was built at the old Navy Yard complex (Philadelphia Naval Business Center) which contributed to Tastykake filing bankruptcy afterwards due to operating both facilities during the move and the rising costs of ingredients. They were eventually sold to Flowers Foods in 2011 and continue to operate at the new facility.
