Watson's Richfield


7.50 -- Watson's Richfield Station (east).

This was a Richfield Station and an auto repair garage built by Dr. Bill Watson and his wife Annette. It was open during the heyday of the Las Vegas traffic.

Notes:

Once located on the east side of Route 66, Watson's Richfield Station was a bustling service spot during the golden age of road trips and Las Vegas traffic. Built by Dr. Bill Watson and his wife, Annette, the station was more than just a gas stop-it also served as an auto repair garage, catering to travelers who needed a quick tune-up or emergency fix. When road travel was king, stations like Watson's were lifelines for weary motorists.

Richfield stations were known for their iconic yellow and blue branding. Watson's would have been a beacon for those cruising along Route 66, offering fuel, services, and a slice of the roadside Americana that defined the era.
