Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dixie Travel Plaza
The March 1973 Chicago Tribune article is specifically about this place. The 2003 AP Online article is also specifically about this place. (The fact there's an article by the AP about it closing down shows it must be important to someone!) The other Chicago Tribune article refers to it as "one of the most impressive" late night stops along I-55 (quoted from the Wiki article). And how about some of these inclusions in Route 66 history books: http://books.google.com/books?id=tsdb1jDU8aQC&pg=PA17&dq=Dixie+Truckers+Home&hl=en&ei=J7UdTLSsJ6ThnQeKop3nAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CC8Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=Dixie%20Truckers%20Home&f=false, http://books.google.com/books?id=akLftFfA3_0C&pg=PA16&dq=Dixie+Truckers+Home&hl=en&ei=J7UdTLSsJ6ThnQeKop3nAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=2&ved=0CDQQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=Dixie%20Truckers%20Home&f=false, http://books.google.com/books?id=4eKMZKF3PgQC&pg=PA16&dq=Dixie+Truckers+Home&hl=en&ei=J7UdTLSsJ6ThnQeKop3nAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=3&ved=0CDkQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&q=Dixie%20Truckers%20Home&f=false, http://books.google.com/books?id=Ej7xiL8OFJQC&pg=PA38&dq=Dixie+Truckers+Home&hl=en&ei=J7UdTLSsJ6ThnQeKop3nAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=7&ved=0CE0Q6AEwBg#v=onepage&q=Dixie%20Truckers%20Home&f=false, http://books.google.com/books?id=VUO_J0YzpP0C&pg=PA190&dq=Dixie+Truckers+Home&hl=en&ei=J7UdTLSsJ6ThnQeKop3nAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=9&ved=0CFcQ6AEwCA#v=onepage&q=Dixie%20Truckers%20Home&f=false. Or how about this bit in Time Magazine? http://books.google.com/books?id=sRcnAQAAIAAJ&q=Dixie+Truckers+Home&dq=Dixie+Truckers+Home&hl=en&ei=JrYdTLGIHdSpnQfTtpjnAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=3&ved=0CDMQ6AEwAjgK. It's even mentioned in fiction books! http://books.google.com/books?id=5s-j6s5P_C4C&pg=PA282&dq=Dixie+Truckers+Home&hl=en&ei=J7UdTLSsJ6ThnQeKop3nAw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=10&ved=0CFwQ6AEwCQ#v=onepage&q=Dixie%20Truckers%20Home&f=false. Google Books gets 120 results for "Dixie Truckers Home" (the most well known name). The Google News Archive gets 222 hits for "Dixie Truckers Home". What else is there to say? Satisfies both  and . Additionally, "hotlinks" are not required for references. Just because something is not online does not make it unverifiable or not reliable
