Not a station, but came upon this in a small town in Illinois

We did a "Home Town" vacation this year and I came across this station in a small town in Kansas. I was shooting a photo of the island lights when Lowel came out and asked what I was doing. After a bit of chatting, we realized our grandfathers were brothers so he relaxed. He said, "Lots of folks come by here and try to steal my stuff." Turns out it used to be a Skelly Station and he collects Skelly stuff. I later found out that he gives full service to the widows in town. I wouldn't have guessed that the pumps still worked, but I guess they do. - Jack J.

I love this persons home.. it's in a smaller town in central IL that I passed through dozens of times.. it was only 1/2 block off of the Main St.... my eye caught it just a few months ago driving past it so I whipped a u-turn and went to check it out.

Visible pumps at a gas station on US 60 in Ansted, WV near Hawk's Nest and New River Gorge National Park. Didn't notice the pumps until I pulled in to buy gas.

While you're in Cincinnati, Ohio to visit the American Sign Museum, a short drive across the river is The Standard Covington for a nice lunch or dinner. This is a vintage Standard gas station that has been lovingly converted into a diner. We had some great food and a fun experience. See photos below.
