| former station Smith Center, KS |
|
 |
 |
| This former station is probably from the 1920s. It featured a Standard Oil sign but I don't know if that was the original brand sold here. The sign would have originally had a glass flame projecting from the torch. That sign is gone now. [map] |

 |
| This former station may have also housed a car dealership originally. The pumps were removed when it began housing a tire store. The building now houses Navrat's Used Furniture. [map] |
| former station McPherson, KS |
 |
| My guess is that this was a former station and garage. Does anyone know the history of this building? This photo is from 2010. Sometime after 2015, the building was remodeled. The setback facade was removed and brought forward into a flat front. [map] |

 |
| This former station, aka the "Castle Service Station", was built for E.W. Norris in 1926. Norris was inspired by a castle that he saw in Germany while serving in World War I. The station is built from post rock limestone. The detached garage was built in 1929. The station is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In the 1970s, this building housed a Kerr-McGee station. Since 2012, the building has housed the Glen Elder Castle Lodge, a bed and breakfast. [map] |
| former station Bunker Hill, KS |
|
 |
 |
| This former station was built in the 1930s. Although it is dressed as a Mobilgas station, I don't know if it ever was. The sides of the canopy had been walled up by 2008. In 2014, the walls were removed and the replica Mobilgas pumps and pegasus sign was added. These photos are from 2023. [map] |
| former station Burr Oak, KS |

| This former station may still be in use as a repair shop. [map] |
