| former station Oak Hill, WV |
 |
| This former station housed Wobo Motor Sales & Repairs when this photo was taken in 2012. By 2014, the building was housing Little Hawk's Motorcycle Service. The building now houses So-Pro Auto Detail & Window Tint. This station was probably built in the 1920s or 1930s. The service bay building to the right of the tiled roof building were most likely added later. [map] |
| former station Harrisville, WV |
|
 |
 |
| This former station was vacant when these photos were taken in 2012. The blue zigzag border on the sign is suggestive of Pure Oil but I don't know if that brand was ever sold here. The sign has been painted to look like a record and reads WVHV, indicating that the building is now houses a radio station. [map] |

This former station in Hundred appears to be vacant. It is probably from the 1920s or 1930s. [map] |
