Al's Victory Service Station
With
its now classic lines and styling, this model fits any layout from the late 1930's
to the present day. In cities, they were built on virtually every busy corner
- at some intersections on all four corners! When completed, it will be right
at home alongside other commercial buildings from the Cornerstone Series®.
In a modern setting, this kit could be home to any type of business. Stations
like this were also built in rural areas, usually at intersections of major highways.
As cities grew, however, these once open areas were transformed into subdivisions
and shopping centers.
In most cases, stations were owned by independent dealers
who purchased petroleum products from a large oil company. Many were run by local
wholesalers, who received tank car loads of gasoline and other products at their
bulk oil terminals. This can be modeled using Interstate
Fuel & Oil (933-3200) near the tracks. Petroleum products would be delivered
to area stations in tank trucks.
Finished model measures 3-1/4" x 2-1/4".
