Item 1.

     (a)  Name of  Issuer: Crown Central Petroleum Corporation

     (b)  Address of Issuer's Principal Executive Offices: One North Charles
          Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21201

Item 2.

     (a)  Names of persons filing:  

          See cover pages, Item (1).  This Amendment No. 7 to Schedule 13G is
          filed to reflect changes in information reported on the Schedule
          13G, as heretofore amended, filed by American Trading and
          Production Corporation ("American Trading"), Atapco, Inc.
          ("ATAPCO") and the other undersigned persons who with American
          Trading and ATAPCO, made up the ATAPCO Group (the "Group").  This
          amendment is occasioned by (i) the resignations of Henry A.
          Rosenberg, Jr. and Louis B. Thalheimer as trustees of the Hilda
          Blaustein 1973 Trust, (ii) changes in the ownership of shares of
          Class A Common Stock, $5.00 par value per share, of Crown Central
          Petroleum Corporation (the "Crown Class A Common Stock"),
          immaterial individually and in the aggregate, by certain members of
          the Group and (iii) the closing of a series of transactions on
          December 31, 1998 (collectively, the "Reorganization"), pursuant to
          which, among other things, (a) American Trading was merged with and
          into ATAPCO, (b) all of the shares of Crown Class A Common Stock
          held by ATAPCO were contributed to Gateway Gathering and Marketing
          Company ("Gateway") and (c) Gateway became a separate company owned
          by certain of the former stockholders of American Trading.

     (b)  Address or principal business office or, if none, residence:  

          Prior to the Reorganization, American Trading had its principal
          place of business at One North Charles Street, Baltimore, Maryland
          21201.  In connection with the Reorganization, American Trading
          ceased to exist as a separate legal entity and was merged with and
          into ATAPCO.  Prior to the Reorganization, ATAPCO had its principal
          office at 220 Continental Drive, Suite 103, Newark, Delaware 19713.
          In connection with the Reorganization ATAPCO changed its name to
          American Trading and Production Corporation.  Immediately prior to
          the Reorganization each of the other undersigned persons had his or
          her business address at c/o American Trading, One North Charles
          Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21201.

     (c)  Citizenship:

          Prior to the Reorganization, American Trading was a Maryland
          corporation.  ATAPCO  is a Delaware corporation.  Each of the other
          reporting persons is a citizen of the United States.

Item 9.   Notice of Dissolution of Group

          This is the final Schedule 13G Amendment for the Group.  Although
          after the Reorganization certain members of the Group continue
          their beneficial ownership of shares of Crown Class A Common Stock,
          the Group will no longer exist.  On January 12, 1998, a new group
          (the "Gateway Group"), which consists of Gateway, Rosemore
          Holdings, Inc. (the Gateway subsidiary holding all of Gateway's
          shares of Crown Central stock), Ruth R. Marder, Henry A. Rosenberg,
          Jr., Judith R. Hoffberger, Edward L. Rosenberg, Frank B. Rosenberg,
          Jeffrey A. Hoffberger and Lisa J. Bertelsen, filed a Schedule 13D
          with respect to the Gateway Group's ownership of shares of Crown
          Class A Common Stock and a Schedule 13D with respect to the Gateway
          Group's ownership of shares of Class B Common Stock, $5.00 par
          value per share, of Crown Central.

          As a result of the Reorganization, the members of the Group who are
          not members of the Gateway Group (or any other group with respect
          to the Crown Class A Common Stock) no longer have any Schedule 13G
          or 13D filing obligations with respect to the Crown Class A Common
          Stock.  These members are as follows: American Trading (which no
          longer exists as an independent legal entity), ATAPCO, Barbara B.
          Hirschhorn, Elizabeth B. Roswell, Louis B. Thalheimer, Marjorie T.
          Coleman, Elizabeth T. Wachs and Russell J. Hoffberger.
