'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a gas station located on [[Interstate 65]] owned and operated by [[Joseph Wheattree]]. The station's facade features a large horse head, in reference to its name, itself a reference to the 1973 play ''[[wikipedia:Equus (play)|Equus]]'' by Peter Shaffer. The station is in debt to the [[Consolidated Power Company]] who has in turn throttled its electricity.
Its design – namely the wedge-shaped canopy – is based on that of the [[wikipedia:Tramway Gas Station|Tramway Gas Station]] in Palm Springs, California, or the [https://whitney.org/collection/works/21022 Phillips 66] station in Flagstaff, Arizona, photographed by Edward Ruscha for the book ''[[wikipedia:Twentysix Gasoline Stations|Twentysix Gasoline Stations]]''.
