This small chain in Illinois still has full service! Looks to have been a Union 76 at one time...


Check out the cool square canopy lights -- this is only the 2nd station I've seen with these.




This is a neat old store that once sold gas.

Couple nice old stations -- The first one looks to have been Texaco. The second is probably another.

Neat old Gulf bulk plant. The first time I saw it, it was surrounded by tanks, vines, and overgrowth, and was likely full of globes. When I finally made it back, it was as shown here -- the land was cleared and grassy. A peek in the open door revealed that it is now completely empty.



Neat old pile of junk:

That's all I've got for now -- it's been a long, cold winter and I haven't done much driving around. Feel free to post your photos!
