This truck survived it's job transporting Nitro to struggling oil wells to help them once again bring forth the precious oil that would help this truck and others make it through there work day. Now the wise old truck is helping teach all of us a little something about the history of oil.

Otto Torpedo was one of the main "shooting" companies in the area for years and their skills were used by many well owners to break apart the sandstone in their wells to help them flow better.

There is a $6 fee for adults to get onto the grounds during business hours. If you stop by after hours you may get to see the truck through the window but be sure to be off property before dark.

The hours for the park very by time of year so please check this web page for more information (visit link)
