Mary Cheville Collection. Intercity bus line stop. Sickerts' Conoco station at 500 W Bremer. Henry C. Sickert remodeled in 1938 by adding the washing and greasing bay in left and installing a central heating unit. The design was specifically chosen to blend with the former station. Bremer County Independent; 19 October 1938. The Continental Bus bears a "Special" sign. The station was not a regular bus stop, at least at that time.
