This former station was built around 1926. I believe it was built as a Lion station. It later housed a Texaco. The building housed the offices of J.E. Moore Timber Co. in 2003. The building appeared to be vacant in 2014. It was still vacant in 2019. The paint had peeled off the sign revealing a Lion brand. [map]
