I like it, I like it even more that it's not mowed down...it's almost vintage ;)

@Lorraine: They sure don't age like wines. :D

This shot is perfect! How typical of those types of gas stations....All the abandoned ones look just like this one! A few letters left....grass growing between the tar.....and the bright station colors standing out amongst the twisted metal. Love it! :)

@Lambspun: Usually down the road they have been replaced by 12 pump stations.

I wouldn't be surprised if the owner's skeleton could be found in that station! :)

@MadScientist: Every gas station petrol operator must stay and go down with his station.

Claudia from Illinois, United States

Love it. Would love to go inside and snoop around a bit. Blows my mind how one day a business closes and it's just left as is until the weeds start choking it out.

This is cool! It's great to find places such as this...always makes me wonder what they looked like when they were fully operational.
