TOM'S #9 Opened:  1997 Address:   459 N. Enola Rd Photographed:  August 2021 Remember that Tom's convenience store in Shrewsbury , which was featured on this blog back in July? Well, here I am at another Tom's, this time in Enola. If you're interested in the history of Tom's, I went into detail about it in the Shrewsbury post , so if you want some background on Tom's, I'd recommend you go check that out! Tom's #9, another store of the Pointed Roof design, opened in 1997, a year after Shrewsbury. Around 2012, many Tom's stores were converted to Sunoco, but this one was only converted halfway. The convenience store was rebranded to Sunoco A-Plus, however, the gas pumps continued to operate as Tom's. But then everything changed. Again. The Enola store was one of over 1,000 to be purchased by 7-Eleven in 2018 and by 2021, it has been completely converted to 7-Eleven.
