Yeah, this is a late-60's house, so it's likely been there a while. It was originally on a water well, but switched to city water when it became available. The well water was sufficient for filling the toilet tanks this weekend, lol. However, it's a bit of a pain to cart in a 5-gallon bucket a time or two each day from the only spigot that the well is attached to anymore.
Update: they had it fixed in a couple of hours. They ran some 1" PEX through the inside a section of the old 1.25" galvanized pipe to avoid drilling any additional holes. They used heat-expansion fittings, not crimp/press-style fittings. It helped that I dug out the trench over the old line to speed up their repair efforts.
