The storage tanks were just west of Chama. The pipeline came in on 2nd St. and tanks were west on 2nd St. There is a gate across 2nd. St. now where the tanks were. The pipeline still exists through town. In the 1990's a contractor digging with a backhoe hit it and broke a hole in it. It caused all kinds of excitement as no one knew what it was. The Gas Co. said it wasn't thiers, along with the water and sewer people. Someone (might have been me) said it was the old Gramps pipeline. They said that made sense because it smelled like oil.
