Looking west from US-59. The fall protectors indicate that the elevator is rail served, and the cuts of hoppers confirms it.

Not only are the wood grain elevators still standing, but they are also the core of an expanded elevator.

The sidings look long enough to hold a unit train. This elevator must ship a lot of grain because a train was caught in all four street views and by a satellite. In this satellite excerpt. a cut of hoppers starts at the left edge.

And they have their own switcher to help load the hoppers.

Even the old elevator loads hoppers even though it doesn't have a fall protector. I didn't realize that an elevator can load hoppers without fall protection.

I wonder how many bushels this co-op can store. It seems rather large.
The current railroad was the SOO. According to a USGS map, it is now CP. The Great Northern railroad is abandoned.
