At present I have 2, but in process of adding a 3rd. Lets see what's on your layout.

Interesting topic for me. I feel I should have one on the layout. Not sure on placement - city or country. I would like to find something that looks like it's from the 50's or 60's but slightly modernized. That way it will blend in with the rest of the layout. I remember seeing the famous green dinosaur when we arrived to my grandparents town. So it will probably be a Sinclair station.

Josef, your 2 gas stations are super. I don't have any on my layout. I would like to have one but I don't have room for even a small one.

Were a self built kit can be angle cut to fit a corner of table, or against a wall just the frontage with room for pump(s). Also even into the early 70s I remember seeing small shed like building with only 1 pump in front and signage. Just some thoughts There was a town near our Farm, Cabery, Il. that had a Gas Station with only 1 pump and operated into the 80s. The building was small, I believe it was 8'X12' only. He had oil, belt, and filters inside. He had a hydraulic jack to pull tires and fix flats. Not large. I know we took a picture of it and will try to find it.

I wanted the sunoco operating one originally but it wasn't available at the time, it was released again a couple years ago, after I bought this one, I might buy a sunoco station when I do a new layout. Attachments:

Nice stations! I will have one on the layout at some point, and I have the spot reserved for that. First up are other structures. I’ll get around to it, but not too soon. Andy

I don't have one right now. I have my eye on the Shell station from Menards. I don't have room on my layout at present, but I'm deciding what building to sacrifice to make room.

I have 1. Plasticville. It's a small town. Got it way back in my younger days. It still offers full service. S.J.
