This gas station dates to at least the mid-1940s and has been dressed up with Texaco and Route 66 signs. The station sits at the intersection of Main Street and 6th in Galena.

The service bay on the left in this photo is a later addition. Not shown here is what appears to be another smaller addition on the back of the station that fills a bit of space between it and the Post Office building next door.

x About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
xDid You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned lanes are still there.
