 Overview
 Description
Old propane (LP) gas facility located on Lone Pine Avenue in Springfield Missouri.
All that remains are two buildings, some bits and pieces of propane related stuff, and the concrete supports for the now gone tanks.

The buildings appear to have been built in the 30's or 40's.
This place was active up until maybe 2009. a few years after it closed, the big storage tank was removed along with most of the equipment and the cool old SkelGas sign.

     Future Plans
    Noticed the other day (May 2015) that the gates are locked with railroad locks, and after checking the assessor's website, it seems it is owned by the railroad (BNSF). they may be using it for future storage of equipment.
