Always looking to buy, but I am REALLY just looking for info on Gilmore stations for my research.

If anybody has any Gilmore station photos, business cards (like the ones shown in pic below) that are stamped with a station name/location, or any other items like matchbooks, maps, pens, ads, paper ephemera, etc... anything that has Gilmore station location(s) on them. Would GREATLY appreciate it if you'd share them with me. One of my endless research projects over the years, has been documenting station names/locations. Always looking to add to the list! Thanks.

The best model you've ever done, IMO. wink

Someday, a full on shot of that station will show up.... somewhere out there, it exists.

Old gassers , I want to thank again the efforts of the late great Dick Bennett for making paint swatches available to me , Jim at T-Way graphics for decal help and of course our own Jeremy Gilmore . Without the help from these gentlemen, this model wasn't going to have been built .

eshaver Wow! As a model railroader I appreciate the modeling skills and attention to detail. What scale is that?

That's a classic one... a common photo, but still cool nonetheless.

It's the Shady Grove Service Station and Grocery Store, part of the Shady Grove Auto Camp complex that was located in Wilmington, CA.
