Real Hess Tanker Truck in Action





I was out in Lancaster PA on a short vacation staying at a little countryside motel and needed to get some gas. The Hess station was right down the street so I figured I would take the short trip and get a cup of coffee while I was there. Upon pulling up to the station to my surprise there it was, a real Hess tanker truck fueling the tanks at the station! I have been collecting Hess trucks for many year and saw a few pictures of these beautiful trucks but never thought that I would see one in person. I asked the driver if it was OK to take pictures of the truck while it was filling the tanks and he was very cordial and answered "feel free to take as many as you want". Well, to my disappointment I had not brought my camera with me never thinking I would have this great opportunity but that was not going to stop me. I went into the Hess station and couldn't believe it, they had instant cameras for sale! I quickly bought one and went outside and clicked away! I have posted a few of these great pictures to share with everyone reading my blog, enjoy!
