S Express (no, not that S Express)

As part of the remodel (or, quite possibly, as a separate thing that happened to happen during the time between my visits), the gas pumps at the station were swapped out, replacing the old Safeway logo with the new "S Express" branding. (Interestingly, the canopy retained the standard Safeway logo -- I guess Safeway is only using the S Express name when they need to replace things with the old logo.) I find it rather amusing that Safeway is using a very similar name to what Speedway does at the ex-Albertsons Express gas stations! At least some of the converted Albertsons gas stations actually have "S Express" rather than "Speedway Express" signs, which is even more similar... though obviously, the logo and branding is very different.
