  Station is empty with a “for lease” sign on front.

  So is the Knollwood station still in use as part of the new arrangement? I’ve driven past it countless times over the decades and still remember when they built the new one right near the old one.

  I see lake forest added led lights on the grill replaced the red rotator in back on driverside to blue striping on bumper and also took the hard section hose off the top on driverside
