o.k. doc... how do we get one... gotta say... some of em' look familiar... HA....

You guys keep the white stuff out your way and we'll hang on to the ground shakers. Just have to make sure those globe collections are glued to the shelves.

Just had our first heavy rains a week or so ago and we weren't even sure what that was (see those wet pumps I posted in Los Alamos).

Now that I can post pictures... here is one! This is my wayne 60, it was on the original farm in Iowa until I bought it. This is the picture of it while still hooked up to the tank.

These two pumps are still in service in Shoup Idaho!

Neat post Rod, you know it'd almost be worth the trip to drive from NC to Idaho just to get to use a visible pump!
Sharp eye guy!!

If anybody wants visit the pumps, they are on the Salmon River about 30 miles downstream from Salmon Idaho. Salmon is about half way between Missoula MT and Idaho Falls ID on Hiway 93. They are beyond the end of the pavement on the dirt part of the road, near the starting point for the white water raft rides down the "River of No Return." I think the store is closed on Thursdays!

Found this neat old station on the road from Monterey to Salinas Hwy 68.

THIS 40-A IS "REALLY HARD" TO SPOT ON A FARM ABOUT 20 MILES FROM ME. IM STILL TRYING TO BUY IT.

Jim your new image hosting service is an absolute miracle...... although you might have created a monster by enabling us common gas guys to post pics without the help of the smart guys.

This Gilbarco is still being used and has the fiberglass pump plates on it.

I found this station last month. Still has the two National A-38's out front.
