Van Horne, IA: New added to Wood Grain Elevator

(Satellite, it is gone now. See the satellite image below that I got when I wrote these notes in 2021.)

In 2009, it still had two wood elevators.

They have expanded a lot since Oct 2009, but the wood elevator with the tall headhouse still stands.

Dennis DeBruler: That is an impressive dryer. A nice contrast of the old and new.

Did the roof of the lower-left bin have roof damage? I noticed there is a crane next to it.

They not only replaced the damage bin, but they have also added another.
