St. Paul, Texas old gas station

Photographer�s Note:�
�This populous little town was once mainly a farming community. Many people residing there now work in nearby Sinton,�Corpus Christi, and the surrounding area.��The old businesses along the old highway are mostly gone now.� A new four-lane highway (181) occupies the land where the railroad tracks were and grain elevators once stood.��The town currently has a convenience store and a tire shop where earlier a gas station once existed.� - William Beauchamp, April, 2009
