Abandoned Marathon - Crossville, TN

Abandoned Marathon - Crossville, TN. Enjoy a quick look at this old gas station just off of I-40. Has seen better days. Was a Greyhound bus stop. Not sure if it still is today but as for being a gas station and convenience store... its still "temporarily closed for renovation".

3:24 the sign actually says "closed for remolding". I guess it needs new mold.

[@keithshort688]

I'm not surprised that Greyhound are now having their new bus stops at former gas stations next to a waffle house. Same situation in Columbus, Ohio. Greyhound closed their old bus terminal in Downtown Columbus and opened a bus depot at a former Shell gas station on Wilson Road south of I-70 on the far west side of Columbus. The city is currently trying to get that new bus depot on Wilson Road permanently shut down on account of crime and traffic issues at that location.

A guy got killed there a few months ago and a security guard just got attacked last week.

[@lacyjade69]

I lived in Crossville about 20yrs ago I have family there.At one time it was a very beautiful place to be.

[@ethansmith1648]

It still is.

[@shannonyoast6906]

As always great video. 👍

[@bridgetraveler7700]

We went to buc ee's in crossville tn not too long ago when we were trying to go to Texas and we stayed at Paradise On the Mountain RV Park. We tried to leave the place but we realized that our motorhome automatic leveling jacks won't working so we had to stay at least for a few days until my dad got a tool to make the jacks go back up. Before that we called a mobile repair service but the person was a young guy that didn't know much about leveling jacks and he tried to fix it but it didn't work.

[@peterrowland2691]

This video was a lot of laughs. (Crumbling sidewalk, somebody's pants..."free-willy style"😂)

[@mamacindyrogofsky495]

Damn it. I hope guy who lost his pants is at least wearing 🩳. 😂😂😂😂

[@WallieB26]

LOLOLOL!!!!

[@silviahdez2950]

A gas station? Usually there's not alot of stations. Nice find.☺

[@JuliaSherrill]

A lot is changing in Crossville! I grew up there but since moved to Asheville NC I remember this place well!!! I didn't know they closed though and it did use to be those traditional colors not sure when that changed! Great video

[@kingstonagainstcorruption2268]

Used to stop there a lot during the 1,000 mile yard sale.

[@amandaclick3590]

Yes that building and gas pumps look old and vintage! ❤ Great video, WallieB26!

[@Optopolis]

The inside of that place is torn up! Wow!

[@brandonb.6099]

That marathon is in rough shape. The lime green color on the pumps and building really stands out.

[@SittinNBitchin]

There's several homeless people that hang out there from time to time. I've saw a man sleeping on the sidewalk in front of that building several times. Ive lived here in Crossville for 51 years and have saw a lot of our smaller businesses shut down. I know we need progress to grow as a community but we have lost so much of our home town feeling along the way.

[@kimiastewart6293]

Good video, so sad to see places like this so thanks for getting out there in the cold winter months to show them to us 👍👍

[@silentdreamer821]

I drive past the place every day on my way to work. It was closed for remodeling after being purchased by a new owner. But during the process, the 7-11 across the street was built, and that ended the Marathon.

[@danielavila5001]

Awesome find Keep up the good work

[@MetraEverythingProductions]

What the hell is a "jobe" 💀

[@DavidWetherell-ro9ye]

Thanks for coming out and checking it out go check out the abandoned shoneys in Cookeville

[@ZeeMann_Retail]

Great video! Lol, so much for the remodel...

[@JohnnyAzariaTV]

when i did the grand opening for bucees last year in crossville , I ate at that Waffle House and stayed at the red roof inn next door and shopped at this gas station lol , Being from New York City , this is so great 😀

[@douglascrawford5628]

The sign on the door says ‘closed for REMOLDING!’ which is probably more accurate.😂

[@WallieB26]

LMAO!

[@vanessatrapasso7849]

I love Crossville TN ❤

[@jet34thehawk]

Cool ⛽ video

[@danielodam]

In Knoxville tn on the highway 168 and interstate 40 there is an abandoned marathon the address in 5708 th-168 hope you find this information useful and cool video by the way I love your abandoned gas station videos

[@danielodam]

It’s also been closed for about ten years it appears

[@RejectsGarage]

Closed down about a year ago. Buc-ee's ran it out of business. They changed ownership a 6 months or so before they closed down, and the new owner painted it green. The new owner remodeled the inside into a vape shop. Looks like they tore everything out and left.

[@nesskeaton]

Abandoned gas stations are always fun to explore! I met a very sweet stray cat at an abandoned Marathon in Kentucky.

[@MeteorologistMatooffofficial]

plz check out the abandoned Long John Silver's in LaFollette Tennessee/Campbell County.

[@pauled8no1]

There is a possible reason for this weird green color. Some companies require not only removing the signage when a station closes, but also repainting to cover any trace of the corporate color scheme on the site. I think that is what happened here. They used this bile green because it’s as far from the Marathon color scheme as you can get. They just got lazy and blacked out the sign instead of removing it. Great video as always Wallie!

[@tigerlord9302]

I saw a closed Marathon that had the sign in the trash area but was in my Uber and couldn’t stop.

[@johnmarks7940]

93' it was called the Obed River Mart. I knew the owner. He was a great guy and a great cyclist. They sold a lot of smokes too.

[@StantonsJourneys]

Interesting colors and probably lost their pants in the poker game lol. Thanks for sharing brother.

[@IsaiahHurley]

[@lisafreeman4222]

[@Loganclay-eo1pl]

I've been to Tennessee before. That's where I live

[@debbles]

According to the Tn Property Map, this property was last purchased April 16, 2020 for $850, 000 by Akshar Properties Inc. I live in Crossville, and there are businesses closing and opening all the time.

[@TheCBStinson]

Hey wallie You should check out the year on the pumps . It will help you tell when the gas station closed. Just a idea next time ur at a closed gas station

[@WallieB26]

Good to know! Thanks!

[@rogermazuca4582]

The only Marathon I've ever heard of is when Edie Mcclurg asks, welcome to Marathon may I help you??

[@Bemfactor98]

The Bee is looking good in the background!

[@AbileneExplorer]

Hey Wallie there's a few abandoned Allsups here in Abilene, if you can find one can you go to it?

[@crazyjames864]

[@DB-9780]

[@mkps1988]

The colors remind me of the Mapco ones in Tennessee got brought out by Circle K why stop working on it it

[@bigdon9220]

Dude, that place is a crackhead haven. It's been closed like that my whole life wish they would destroy and build something useful there and not another dollar general but knowing this dang town they probably will, but that waffle house is lit af especially late at night. If you're ever in town again, hit me up, and we can show you some better abandoned places.👍👍

[@brandonroberts9216]

Hasn't been a Marathon in many years. Was closed last year was independently owned.Awful place. HAS been opened numerous times under different names and ownership.

[@suziebeck-bo1ip]

Blue cards? He was missing the 2 of spades.

[@703am]

[@JBBRAD9267]

The street shatters than ran this place price gouged you anytime you purchased something.

[@12HpyPaws]

[@CatherineIbold]

[@CatherineIbold]
