Ransom, IL: Gas|Distilate Powered Pumping Station

(Satellite, I could not find the building)

A pumping station for the Sinclair Oil Company, which was bought by Standard Oil in 1921.

Former pumping station at Ransom. Different style, brick construction, not stone block. Matches those in Marceline Mo.

  1. This was a pumping station for Stanolind (Standard Oil of Indiana), not Sinclair. See my comment under Oil Pipelines / Pumping stations for more detail. (Follow link above under "Roger's posting").
