[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3830481, member: 7900"] Update for this. When the wife and I were up near Burkburnett, TX yesterday or the day before, we happened to drive by a display of old oil field equipment right on the north side of town at the first exit for Burkburnett. So today, we worked more roads in that area and we saw a lot of old short pump jacks, many of which are still operating. We saw one place where there were probably 4 operating wells within less than a 5 acre area. Later in the day, we happened by that display of old equipment, so I stopped and took some pictures. There appears to be two different styles of rod line pumps in that display, plus a motor and some gearing. Someone at Burkburnett needs to get some weed killer out there and do some work. If you are interested, there are about 30 pictures at the link below. However, I really need to get by again with morning sun to get better pictures, and with a pair of gloves, I might even pull some weeds.
