Route 66! Part VII: Newberry Springs

As you're about ready to cross under I-40 on Route 66, you're in Newberry Springs.  Most of the dwellings are north of the interstate but there are a few structures south of the interstate.  These photos are from the 7/16/13 trip.

This structure is on the south side of Route 66.  It looks like it's still in commission.  And yes, we should have gone inside to check it out, but instead we were checking out yet another defunct gas station that was across the street from this.

Here's a shot of that gas station.  It's one of the few that don't have "NO TRESPASSING" signs, so were were able to (at our own risk) go inside and explore.

Three old gasoline pumps.  I'm guessing that these are vintage 1992.

The premium was selling for 153.9 while the regular, to the left of the photo, was at 139.9.

All sorts of trash was strewn about.  There was more in another room.

Not much in the way of usable facilities here if you happen to need a pit stop.

A shot of my truck from the gas station.

Next to the gas station, is a bar called "The Barn".  We didn't go in.


More photos of Newberry Springs are on the way.
