| former station Luling, TX |
|
 |
 |
| This former station in Luling is now used as an auto repair shop. The second story building at the back was originally built a railroad tower. It was moved later and the gas station canopy was added to the front of it. |
| former station San Antonio, TX |
former station Bebe, TX |
 |
 |

This former station in San Antonio now houses a used car lot office.
This former station in Bebe also doubled as a grocery store. It was probably built in the 1920s. It has been vacant for many years. |

| Kiser's 66 Super Service Station Alanreed, TX |
|
 |
 |
| Kiser's 66 Super Service Station was built by Bradley Kiser in 1932. It has been restored but is not in use. There are Texaco pumps and signs on display but I don't know if that was the brand sold here originally. I have seen vintage Conoco stations with very similar canopies and supports. The building is maintained by the Texas Historic Route 66 Association. |
| former station McLean, TX |
 |
| This former station has the same style support column as Kiser's 66 described above. This building was constructed in 1926 as a showroom and garage. It became a Panhandle gas station in the 1940s. The canopy was originally covered with Spanish tile made of tin. The building's yellow brick was covered with stucco by the 1990s to give it a more Spanish look. This building was vacant when this photo was taken in 2011. |
| former station Quitaque, TX |
 |
 |
| This former station houses Karol's Kountry Korner. It has been decorated with Mobil signs and old pumps. I don't know if it was originally (or ever) a Mobilgas station. |

The first former Gulf station shown above houses the Sno-Wiz ice cream and food stand.

This former station on the left above now houses the New Beginning Hair Salon. This looks like it was probably a Gulf station originally.
