Was out hitting a few yard sales Saturday and came across this Wayne 777 on an abandoned farm. Got the name of the former owner and will try to track him down. Dave

There is actually a small museum there and we are thinking about loaning some items to put on display.

Paddy is the man! After seeing the one he found in Louisiana years ago we heard about one in Mississippi and the hunt was on. The building is very plain but the private office is pretty amazing!

Castle-like former gas station in Glen Elder, Kansas. Now restored and open as lodging. Not too far off of I-70, so it is a cool option for petroliana enthusiasts. How often do you get the chance to stay overnight on a gas station that is fixed up real nice? Castle Lodge: http://www.gleneldercastlelodge.com/Found by Lance Seybold

I have slowly driven by that place multiple times in Glen Elder, KS as it is on the way to my grandparents place in Munden, KS. It looks like a very cool and interesting place!

Here is an original pump still sitting on the island at the only gas station in a very small town in southeast Wyoming. The owner is very fond of it, and the ad glass advertising the old Lincoln Highway is original.

This place is just a couple miles from my house. It's a custom car shop now. Was this a Pure station?
