[Philip posted quite a few towns with old elevators in mid-Oct 2021 in the Dakotas and Montana.]

Interesting. That photo doesn't match either of the elevators I could find in 2009 street views. On the west side of Main Street.

And on the east side.

The two I found with Street View are now gone. i discovered the one you photographed is further west from Main Street. So this town as recently as 2009 had three wood elevators.

I found the railroad labeled as M.&ST.L. on a map. I assume that it was the Minneapolis and St. Louis Railroad. It was abandoned before 1954.
Aberdeen Quadrangle @ 1:250,000

The elevator on the east side has removed the wood buildings and added three large bins.
