Any backgroud on 'The Great Pizza Railroad' token?

I found this token yesterday, please see pics. Any ideas about it? Can't find anything on the internet about it.

Just a cursory search indeed revealed no info for me either.Strange that such a unique looking token would have no back story. Hope someone can ID that!

The RWM to the left of "The Great" & under No Cash Value, tells me it's from the Roger Williams mint. Established over 75 years ago, Roger Williams Mint has grown to become the worlds largest privately held mint, offering car wash tokens; amusement tokens; and mint quality and proof-like commemorative coins and medallions.
One of his tokens sold for $45. Hope that helps

Based on this FB post there was a Great Pizza Railroad in Aquia Harbor, Virginia.

Made me go back for a second look at some tokens I had just posted. 3 of them had the RWM mint mark. Thanks for sharing that information.
