Though these gas pumps are no longer in use, they provide a great glimpse back into a time many of us remember, when things seemed a lot simpler.
I can still recall the first time I saw a pump your own gas station in Michigan! They had yet to hit Florida, and I was amazed that people were allowed to fill their own tanks! Now it's hard to find a station where you DON'T.

We had rain on and off, so things are wet.

This engine is one of a pair, I'm standing on the valve gantry of the opposing engine. Located at Kempton Park Pumping Station, Hanworth, Middlesex, UK. these engines are accessed at four levels. Beneath are the two pump floors out of shot. Operating on the triple expansion principal. Triple meaning the steam is used three times entering the high pressure cylinder first (RH), then into the intermediate cylinder (middle) and finally the low pressure cylinder (LH) before returning to the boiler via the condenser. I believe these are the largest working preserved triple expansion engines in the world. These give a feel for the size of the engines fitted in ill-fated RMS Titanic. Well worth a visit on steaming days. kemptonsteam.org/collection/triple-expansion-engines/
This is the pumping station at the south side of White Rock Lake in Dallas. Constructed in 1911 it began supplying water to the city in 1913. You can read more about White Rock Lake here.

I found this building whilst scrabbling around in Crowgutter Woods. Not sure it's even a pump house! It contains some pipes and valves. That's the best way to describe it really!

Happy Bench Monday! And, Happy 4th to my US Flickr friends! This nice old bench (one of 2) and very cool old gas pump are on the porch of what I think is an antique auto dealer in Mount Crawford (population 433). Virginia.
She's been a bad girl
She's like a chemical
Though you try to stop it
She's like a narcotic
You wanna torture her
You wanna talk to her
All the things you bought for her
Putting up your temperature
Pump it up
Until you can feel it
Pump it up
When you don't really need it
Out in the fashion show
Down in the bargain bin
You put your passion out
Under the pressure pin
Fall into submission
Hit-and-run transmission
No use wishing now
For any other sin
I took this photo last January, but always hoped for a better shot, with better light. Sadly, this is a shot that can no longer be taken due to the horrible wire fence in front of it.
