Cool Springs Station

I read comments elsewhere online in April 2016 that the station store is now closed. Not sure if it's closed permanently?

The station did close briefly in April, but it's reopened with a new full-time caretaker, "J.B." Barger. We spoke with J.B., and he said that visitors are once again welcome.

1920s Route 66 Gas Station

We happened to stop into Cool Springs for a cool drink and found a roadrunner just outside the front door. The lady inside quickly came out, gave him a bite to eat and explained that her (the roadrunner) name was Nedley and that she had some chicks out back. I suppose they'll be a whole family out there soon.
