 |
|
Can anyone direct me to a good set of POIs for petrol sations that sell LPG?. I have found a site via a link on this site but it includes a station near to me that stopped selling LPG years ago! If it still includes this, how accurate are the other locations? I've also found an Autogas POI download for their LPG stations but it is limited to their 215 locations (out of a couple of thousand UK wide).

Have you tried the download from this site (1261 entries) ?

Is that the 'LPG stations without forecourts'? (!!) If not, do you have a link please.

Can't get a link to it but on the POI download page, once you've selected UK, expand the Fuel subsection and you'll see "LPG (2007-07-16 : 1261)". HTH

The PGPSW ones were updated 16th inst. 411+813=1224, so the databases appear to be about the same on numbers. Can anyone tell me what the difference between "Forecourt" & "Non Forecourt" is?

Forecourt = LPG that is on petrol station Forecourt
Non Forecourt = places that sell LPG but are not a petrol station

Seems obvious really!! Not having a gas car, I hadn't grasped the idea that my local Calor Gas outlet for my barbecue might also sell me gas for my car
