This former Amoco station was a 76 station in its later years. It was vacant when this photo was taken in 2007. By 2012, the building was gone. |

| This former Quaker State station was built in 1928. It was also known as the Sterling Windmill Service station. Sometime after 1995, the building was adapted for the Windmill Restaurant & Co. Around 2008, it became the Pepper Mill. Since around 2011, the building has housed the CCMH Federal Credit Union. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. |

| This former station resembles an Independent Oil station like this one in Baxter Springs, KS. However, I don't believe Independent Oil built stations in West Virginia. The building now houses Sofia Rae's Cafe. |

| This former Gulf station was built in 1937 and the postcard photo above is believed to be from then. Originally, part of the building housed a lunch room. There was also a bus station to the immediate right of the building which is gone now. The lot was heated with underground pipes which prevented snow from sticking. The building was for sale when these photos were taken in 2012. For more, see this website. |
