Burnett, WI: Peachey Bros Elevator on WSOR/Milwaukee & Trail/C&NW and Depot

Elevator: (Satellite)
Depot: (Satellite)

This is another example of a grain elevator on a shortline railroad getting rail service.

Daniel Peters posted 14 photos with the comment: "Peachey Bros Mill/Elevator at Burnett Wisconsin. Long time customer of the MILW and WSOR. Grain cars get loaded here, and inbound fertilizer gets unloaded. Oshkosh sub."
Mike Janke: They picked a spot to have 2 lines serving them.
[Some of the photos show that the elevator has at least two feed trucks.]

A remnant of the C&NW route on the left was retained to serve as a siding for the elevator. WSOR is willing to deliver a rather small cut of hoppers. I counted 22 hoppers in this cut.
