Gas Station

On my way to Olive Garden for dinner last night, I stopped at the big gas station on 466 just past the RR tracks and all the pump handles were bagged and lights out inside. Any one know what happened?

Power interruption....contractor hit an underground primary on the project next door.

Thank you for the response. Must be the storage facilities that are being constructed. I don't feel that is the best place for that sort of business. Just looks out of place to me.

Obviously this mystery has been solved, but there's always a possibility..and it happens more than you think..the store forgot to order gas! I used to make extra money back in the day driving gasoline tankers. I worked for a company in Ohio that was at the time the largest Amoco distributor in the US. They owned a number of the stations and leased out others to private operators. The company-owned stations were delivered to on a regular route basis, but the private operators had to call and order their deliveries, and as I said..it happened more than you might think, that the operators would forget to order until the tanks ran dry!
