This is the grain elevator we see in Photo 4. The two in Photo 1 did not survive.

Street View, May 2024

The depot was actually half way between Stevenson and Madison Streets and between the house track and the mainline. The town had a small railyard to support the quarry.

1959/61 Elmore Quad @ 24,000

The quarries were very active in 1951.

The town doesn't store much grain, but it does sell a lot of chemicals to farms.
