THere is also the station on the corner of Penny Road and Ten-Ten. (Used to have the Indian Take-out in it). It looks very similar to the picture above, and was confirmed still there as recent as Friday.

We always stopped there when we visited my uncle's farm just down the road. I remember the old timey gas pump out front. I bought my first tube of BB's from Doc Willoughby's...probably around 1957
