Before this was Rax it was originally a Winkey's back in the 70s and early 80s. Then it wasArby's, then Rax/Subway.

Wow! What a rarity! I’d never thought Rax partnered up with Subway at one point. Interesting. Also upon looking on street view, that Arbys sign has been sitting there for over 10 years.

I get sad how everything is closing my heart hurt to see that .sometime I want to reopen our favorite places..

Wallie, I’m going to blow your mind and show my age at the same time. This building originally opened as a Winky’s. The Arby’s over by New Kensington is the same building, a former Winky’s. The other, now demolished building like that was In Connellsville as an Arby’s.

Awesome that you found that vintage Arby's sign, nice 👍

"You can see drive-thru service BIG time on that sign" feels like it should be right up there with "Look at the front, where it says AMES real big!" That's an early-80s Arby's sign so maybe they tried Arby's for a bit and the original franchisee went independent?

Subrax! Raxway! 😂 The Christmas bells on the door: Merry Christmas, we're closed! I would HATE to recieve a greeting like that!

I grew up in Greensburg in the ‘90s and 2000s, and I definitely remember when this building had both Rax and Subway signage. I had no clue it was an Arby’s, though, or even before that, was a Winky’s way back in the ‘60s. Awesome video, and so glad to see you in my hometown!

Very familiar with that area, hubby worked just up the road. I lived in south Greensburg as a child& I am now 76. Good video. Thanks .

I have lived in Greensburg all my life. I remember this building was a Rax, Arby's, Belly Buster, Subway, Rax, Rax/subway, and just Subway...I am probably missing some in there as well. Very cool.

WOW! There was a Rax in my town, later a Wendy's. A tree came down and crashed through the glass part and it was condemned with the tree continuing to grow in it until it caught fire and was demolished. You should visit Detroit some time.

Amazing that that Arby's sign has just been sitting there all those years.

Cool find dude! They should of kept Rax and dropped Subway. 🙈We have a drive thru for one of the Subways in Little Rock.

I used to walk to the subway all the time. It always had the same "Under New Management" sign that they wouldn't take down for a year or two.

We’ve never had a subway with a drive-through here in Vermont As far as I’ve ever known

What an awesome find. I love both the Rax sign and the Arby’s sign. We used to have Rax here in Florida and in my area we still have some former Rax buildings that have become home to other restaurants.

What a Bizarre combo! The closest I got to this combo near me is a Subway/Tacos AL CARTEL combo that was a Subway/Matador Combo.

I just went to Subway this evening for my dinner. That particular Subway I stopped at does have a drive-thru. It's the only one in this area, the foothills in NC. We used to have another drive-thru Subway at a convenience store. The Subway is still there, but they closed up the drive-thru part years ago.

Awesome

Ha! I just went past there not long ago and I mentioned that it looks like Subway just closed also! LOL wasn't sure...

Pittsburgh Dad likes this.

Nate better not watch this video or he'll be sad

Oh wow, I went to high school just around the corner and passed this every day for those 4 years. Weird to see it abandoned!

The old abandoned Subway on Rt.981 in Latrobe had a drive through that was almost like a tunnel lol And yes, I miss Rax too... Went to the one that used to be in New Alexandria many times years ago

Thanks for sharing.

cool find mr wallie sirs

Yeah I saw that on your Facebook page very interesting a rax arby's and a subway alot of different restaurants thank you for sharing

With the price gouging by subway we'll see more of them closed. 😔

Wow 👌 awesome rax

Wow! What a find! I have never seen any Subway drive -thru here in WNY! Good video!

I believe every Subway in Fayette Co. PA has a drive thru

Besides that building being a Subway and Rax, it probably was a Arby's at one time.

Years ago there was a rax in Lancaster pa and now it's a 5 guys hamburgers and with in the past few years they had some hosses restaurants in Chester County and Lancaster and berks the pretty much pulled out of those areas I think the closes hosses now you have to go to the Hershey pa or York area now.

The Hoss’s restaurant in my home town is thriving. Cool find tho, u don’t see many abandoned subways, let alone a Rax/subway combo

Cool😀

Nice video! Definitely a rare find for sure!

This video like all of your videos slap! Anyways because of your rax videos I now know what rax is and I'm in Cincinnati so a trip to rax is easy to visit. Great Videos!

Winky’s then Arbys then Rax then Rax/Subway

I eat arbys yesterday I taste test it’s was good wallie

This is absolutely spectacular

Glad you caught the Arby's sign. That is very interesting. If they had both signs you could make a kid an interesting play house/ clubhouse. Very nice.

All the best to you both.

Hi 👋

I wish that we had Rax in New Mexico to my knowledge, we just have Arby's here I'm not sure what all fast food places are in Albuquerque Back in the day I remember the highway exit signs for Rax when traveling through Pennsylvania

Hey Wally one of your followers from Georgia I believe this was an Arby's before it became a rax and a subway.🙂

Hey Wallie I bet you are extra sad because of that Rax being gone and since Rax is your favorite place to eat.

Been waiting for this👏 Thanks Wallie!!

It's was rax and Subway but recently before it closed this building was just Subway at one point

Goodvideo I like rax

Thats a big surprise there a rax combined with a subway thats like kfc and bojangles sharing the same building together lol awesome video 👍

Alot of History, Nostalgia and tons of memories associated with these Restaurants and closed stores. Assuming that couples,Families and people enjoyed the dining experiences ...and the reuniting of people in general. Great video 👍😎

Wallie you lived in Greensburg pa wow I didn't know that man you was living close to me I'm in Uniontown pa I go to Greensburg a lot to eat sometime and I have a friend that lives in Irwin pa..so cool

I miss Rax Restaurants.

Rare find!!!!!

Love seeing new content going on wallie . Your job must be pretty awesome letting you have the time off spending time with family and enjoying the summer time .

That building has been going to hell for years not sure why because the Dunkin donuts and Hoss' next door are always busy! I am there alot in SW Greensburg I can see my old doctor office in your vid in the background LOL 🤣

There's an abandoned Subway in downtown pgh, Station Square

now this was a awesome video wallie keep it up great one :D

I'll hafta come back to PA, I ain't been up there in 16 years.

Thank you for posting this. I live about 10 minutes from this location and didn't know it closed down. Love the content.

So sad to hear about your favorite restaurant closing down and being abandoned, but it happens and it's okay! ❤ I enjoyed watching! Thank you so much for an awesome video!

Wow! I’ve driven past this road soooo many times when heading to Westmoreland Mall, and I never knew this used to be a Rax. Awesome video Wallie!

There used to be a Rax where the Dunkin Donuts is now on Route 30, best turkey bacon clubs and creamy cole slaw ever, and it was right down the street from me

OMG I am I in Canada and my childhood department store is going to reopen next year zellers is the store!!! OMG I am so excited

What's You Favorite Restaurant Wallie and Kayla.

WallieB26 totally awesome and cool abandoned video! Never ever seen a Rax! Cool Arby's sign! Really enjoyed your totally awesome and cool video!

Hey Wallie, been here all my life and still live close to this. I used to go to Winky's there for burgers and fries all the time. It became an Arby's when Winky's closed and they added the drive-thru window. Subway came on board later, but when Rax left Subway remained though business apparently fell off and the building appeared to be deteriorating. It appeared dark when it was open looking like it was closed. I believe that was the original buiding and I can say that I miss those days.

👋

That Rax sign was hidden underneath many others for years

I worked at this location from roughly 2007-2010. It was operated by Rob Holmberg (former Oakland Raiders). It operated as a rax/subway for several years till I wanna say getting rid of the rax side around 2009ish. The drive thru was still used for subway though but I remember it was often broken. When my mom was younger she used to go there when it was winkys used to tell me all the time when she'd take me to work.

Used to get stoned and get the munchies,drive to Rax ,and get their Beef bacon cheddar sandwich .it was awesome.

Oh yeah Ga Hellson posted something

I'd totally take that Arbys sign home since its in the trash lol

Use To Be A Winky’s In The 70’s And Into The Early 80’s When They Finally Shut Down , My Great Grand Father Took Me To Winky’s Everyday For Lunch Their When I Was A Kid . 5/24/23

That is super weird subay slash rax do you rember wallie in 4 years ago your filmd long Jon’s silvers Shash AW before wallie

It's outside, abandoned, free Arby's sign!

This restaurant also was a Winkies back 50 years ago.

Hoss restaurants are alive and well in central and southern PA!

Rax was the shit. Don’t forget shopping at Hills dept store and Zares.

I like your shirt

We're getting a Buc-ee's in Springfield, Missouri.

A great video, Wallie and Kayla! I've never seen or known that Rax and Subway teamed up in one place. Have a KMartlicious Day!

Too bad you didn’t find a Winky’s sign too.

New sub ! Liked 👍😊✌️🐸

remember, always look at the front, where it says ames real big

If I saw rax I'd think it's a pool hall. 🎱

Here,in the Detroit and Southeastern Michigan area. Subway has Drive Through Windows in the stand alone restaurants. The,Subways that are located in Gas Stations don't have Drive Through Windows. The,Subway locations in Downtown Detroit and the one located in the GM World Headquarters,(formally the Renaissance Center)don't have Drive Through Windows. And,Subway has been closing restaurants in the Detroit area permanently.

Rax is way better than Subway. Subway is dying.

They still have Rax at Harlan, ky but good video

Well from what I understand rax was very random with their food selection.

This racks must of been a Arby's originally

Was rax a restaurant I've have never heard of that one before 🙄🙄??

that place was a dive at the end, they couldn't keep staff so it was a toss in the hat if they'd be open and if they were they barley had ingredients.

@Wallie B Dont be surprised if people share their memories.. 🤔🙂

Hold up wallie i been living in Phoenix az for long time i never had rax i had arbys my entire life i love arbys

yo wallie, i did a good amount of research on this one and all i could find was that the latest review on that subway was from 2 months ago, so thats probably when it closed. i honestly looked through everything i could for about 20mins and there was nothing for the address

Hey Wally that's pretty cool to see a rax Subway combo we don't have those where I live but we have a Dunkin' donuts Subway combo. They're very rare but they are out there in upstate New York Central New York area Syracuse where I live. I know there's one across the street from the Great Northern Mall in Clay New York Wally you may have seen Anthony's videos this most recent video when he came back to do a video on the mall. Never knew that they were partnered with rax back in the day pretty cool you have the choice of getting a healthy sub from Subway or you can go to unhealthy fast food rax to get it unhealthy sandwich from them. Same way with us here in New York state New York you have unhealthy Dunkin' donuts next to a healthy Subway so when you go to get your sub you're attempted to go get unhealthy donut for dessert and spoil your diet. But pretty cool though that they were like that. Though Dunkin donuts was the only combo store they combined with but nope you show here they come bind also with rax cool.

Definitely looks like an Arby's restaurant from the 1980s. I'm guessing Arby's closed in the mid 1990s, and that's when Rax and Subway came to town. Had no idea Rax was even in the Pittsburgh area in the late 2000s. I thought all the Rax locations in Western Pennsylvania closed by around 2005 or so. I definitely remember when Rax was all over Western Pennsylvania, though that was a long time ago.

raxway

Yea originally rax, switched to just rax/subway combo ,then went to just subway.
