The Cool Springs Service Station was built in the 1920s and eventually had a cafe, a bar, and cabins. Route 66 was bypassed in 1953, and the station was abandoned in 1964. Adding insult to injury, its ruins were blown up for the 1991 Dolph Lundgren/Jean-Claude Van Damme film Universal Soldier. Was restored in 2004 from vintage photographs.

Nice shots do you have any that show the gas pumps from a more direct angle?
