The big bin on the right of the street view at the top of these notes is on the left in this view.
Both bins on the left in the above view were built recently because we can see the foundation for them on the right side of this satellite image.
The railroad was built by the Great Northern.

BNSF still owns the route to this town.
But I don't know why they still own it because the elevator does not look like it can fill covered hoppers. But the siding on the right does look much better than the "mainline" on the left. Does BNSF provide carload service for something?
