Saginaw, TX: Gavillon's Wheat House

(Gavilon Grain 3D Satellite, 8 photos; Flour Mill 3D Satellite, photos)  It will be interesting to see when the steel bins show up on the satellite image.

NS 3668, a GE ET44AC and a BNSF GE, sit on the lead track to the Ardent Mills Flour Mill in Saginaw, Texas. In the background are the three new steel corn tanks at Gavillon's Wheat House. The Gavillon Facility is the largest Wheat House with a single Head House.
Dennis DeBruler I wonder what the bushel capacity was before the bins where added and what it is now. I noticed a photo that indicates they can handle six lanes of trucks. Two lanes is large in corn+soybean country.

Gavilon Grain hired an aerial photo that shows the new bins: Ryan Aerial Photographers, Aug 2018

I presume this is the same grain elevator.

It is easy to see that this is the same elevator.

The far north end is a 2 bay flour mill built a few years ago.
[Two ready-mix trucks are keeping the concrete pump truck busy.]
Dennis DeBruler: Kyle Greenwood It has horizontal lines, but not at regular intervals. So is this slip-form instead of jump-form construction?
Kyle Greenwood: Dennis DeBruler yes, this is a Slipped Flour Mill.

Of course, I noticed the grain elevator instead of the locomotives.

Kirby Pople: They lived their lives and died right there. 😞 cut to bits right in the shadow of that elevator.
