In addition to gourmet tea and coffee, they also serve sandwiches, ice cream and milkshakes. Westminster Station is located in Carroll Plaza Shopping Center at the intersection of Baltimore Blvd (MD-140) and Englar Road. Cruise Quests This is not a Gimmick Rally Cruise, so navigators are not required, but there will be a few Cruise Questions to add some enjoyment to the drive. The question are: Quest 1: How many times did we cross the Maryland Midland Railroad Tracks? Quest 2: What time is it on the clock in Frizzlesburg? Quest 3: What is the name of the Fire Station we passed? Quest 4: (Tie Breaker) How many barns did we pass? Cruise Safety Rules 1. This is a pleasure cruise. We are not racing. 2. Be respectful of all other traffic, and the residents of Carroll County. 3. Keep a safe distabce from the car in front of you. This cruise is in an agricultural area. Be prepared to stop. We may encounter farm eqiupment, bicyclists, joggers, and deer on the roads. 4. If you have mechanical problems, safely pull to the side of the road and we will stop to offer assistance. 5. There are a few places in the route where we will be making turns onto roads with moderate traffic. At each of these areas, there is a pull-off area where the lead car will wait for the group to reassemble. Enter these roads safely. We will wait for you. 6. This is not a race. Be safe. 7. Have Fun.
