Putnam, IL: Lost/Rock Island Depot and Grain Elevator

(Satellite, it was just west of the mainline and halfway between Courtland and Douglas Streets. Google Maps won't allow me to drop a pin in an accurate position because it goes to the nearest existing building.)

This is a rare example of an elevator that has a conveyor over the mainline of a railroad. But this is not a Class I railroad. I think it is IAIS. I don't think the elevator is rail served.
