Elevator: (Satellite)
This is another town that has not only lost its depot, but also its railroad. But the elevator has survived.

| Dennis DeBruler commented on Tim's comment So you are looking North from Market Street, https://maps.app.goo.gl/9oygzyMxaWfuQpV67. That indicates that the rectangle next to the tracks on this topo map is accurate. 1955/56 Minonk Quad @ 24,000 |

Market Street is along the bottom of this aerial. I included the building north of Walnut Street that is west of the tracks because that would be the grain elevator.

Since the elevator has survived the abandonment of the railroad, I don't understand why I can't see an elevator in the background of Andy's photo. The above aerial shows the town had one a few blocks north of the depot.
