Nostalgic Old Sohio Station
Sunset and Wilshire的点评
点评：J.D. Rockefeller founded the Standard Oil Company in the 1880s and it became an oil monopoly. As a result of new antitrust laws, it was broken up into several companies in 1911, including the Standard Oil Company of Ohio (Sohio). Growing up in the 1960s and 1970s, Sohio stations were seen just about everywhere in Ohio with their familiar signage and red, white, and blue color schemes.
BP (British Petroleum) took over the company in the late 1970s. In 1991, all of the old Sohio stations were "rebranded" as BP buildings using the green and yellow colors and a slightly different architecture. The old Sohio stations virtually disappeared.
This location was originally a Sohio station, briefly rebranded as BP, and then acquired by a guy who had worked here in the 1970s when it was still Sohio. He has re-rebranded it back into a Sohio station, complete with sets of the old historic pumps. There is a lot more information on the Sunset and Wilshire website if you are interested.
This station does not sell gas anymore, but is the site of a car repair business. This is private property, not a museum, but the owner is extremely friendly and, assuming he is not too busy, will tell you about it and show you around. Note the old credit card machine in the store with its mechanical sliders.
This reminded me a lot of the kinds of things you can see along Route 66, a few hundred miles to the west.
This is a fun stop-by if you are near Steubenville or looking for something nostalgic. I've given it a "4" because it is likely of limited interest and not strictly a tourist site, but for those liking Americana or off-beat attractions, it is a 5.

翻译：J.D. 洛克菲勒于19世纪80年代创立了标准石油公司，并最终发展成为一家石油垄断企业。由于新的反垄断法，该公司于1911年被拆分成几家公司，其中包括俄亥俄标准石油公司（Sohio）。在20世纪60年代和70年代发展起来的Sohio加油站，以其熟悉的标识和红、白、蓝三色的配色方案在俄亥俄州随处可见。
BP（英国石油公司）于20世纪70年代末收购了该公司。1991年，所有旧的Sohio加油站都被“重新命名”，采用绿黄配色，建筑风格略有不同，成为了BP的办公楼。旧的Sohio加油站几乎消失了。
这个地方最初是一个Sohio加油站，曾短暂更名为BP，后来被一位曾在20世纪70年代Sohio加油站工作过的人收购。他把它重新打造成了索俄亥俄加油站，并配备了一系列历史悠久的老式加油泵。如果您感兴趣，可以在日落和威尔希尔的网站上找到更多信息。
这个加油站现在不再售油，而是变成了一家汽车修理厂。这是私人财产，而不是博物馆，但店主非常友好，如果不太忙，他会向您介绍加油站并带您参观。请注意店里那台带有机械滑动条的老式信用卡刷卡机。
这让我想起了几百英里以西的66号公路沿线的景象。
如果您在斯托本维尔附近，或者想寻找一些怀旧的体验，这里是一个不错的选择。我给它打“4分”，因为它可能没什么吸引力，而且严格来说不是一个旅游景点，但对于那些喜欢美国风情或另类景点的人来说，它应该打5分。
