The slip-form silos on the left was probably built first, then the jump-form silos on the right would have been added. The long building in back would have been the second expansion.

The long building would have been the second expansion. Is that a dryer between the two jump-form silos?

The grain elevator still had a siding back in 1980, but it doesn't look like it was being used.
