The Trail Drive-In was operated by Viedo Independent with a 500 car capacity and a single screen. The theatre has been closed for some time but is still intact. I could not find a time line for the Trail.

Wonderful conparison between 1950 images when this drive-in was new, and Randy's recent photos!

There were two drive-ins in Enid. One was called the Enid Drive-In and one was called the Trail Drive-In. I believe that we have the theaters flip-flopped here. The Trail Drive-In was located on the north side of town on Grand Ave. between Oxford and Cornell (see linked map). According to a friend that grew up in Enid, the Trail was demolished after a teen fell from the top of the screen tower. Mr. Carlisle's images are of the Enid Drive-In.
