EIRR began operations in 1993, and the primary products that it hauls is grain and potatoes.

The above view explains these grain bin foundations. And the wood elevator is gone.

It looks like the grain up here is edible beans instead of row crops. This facility is Kelly Bean. See Bridger, MT, for more information about Kelly Bean.

Seney, MI: Museum/SOO/DSS&A Depot and Grand Elk Railroad

(Satellite, the depot must have been moved to get it off of railroad property.)

DSS&A = Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic, it became part of SOO.

For the Hemingway Fans, the depot where the Two Hearted River adventure began, after World War I, still exists in Upper Michigan, on the former DSS&A.— in Seney, MI.

Rob Groesbeck: Early riders claimed that "DSS&A" stood for, "Damned Slow Service & Abuse".

The railroad was the Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic.

Comments on Michael's post

The town has a big new elevator and a couple of old elevators.

Street View, Sep 2025

None of the big bins existed in 2012 and the older elevator was bigger.

Street View, Jun 2012

The new elevator sometimes has a big ground pile.

The town still has a couple of wood grain elevators.

NK&C = Nebraska, Kansas & Colorado (NKCR)

"Nebraska, Kansas & Colorado Railway (NKCR) owns and operates approximately 509 miles of track in three states and carries a diverse mix of traffic including wheat, corn, coal and fertilizer. NKCR, one of several railroads in Nebraska, has benefited from its ability to attract high throughput grain elevators to its lines due to its superior service record and excellent relationship with BNSF. More specifically, NKCR recently made considerable track improvements in conjunction with upgrade investments by the owners of grain elevators at Venango, Nebraska, Loomis, Nebraska and Holyoke, Colorado, each of which now loads 110-car shuttle trains. In addition to grain, NKCR ships liquid fertilizer shuttle unloaders at Maywood, Nebraska, Imperial, Nebraska and Holyoke, Colorado in addition to the dry fertilizer shuttle unloader at Loomis, Nebraska."

The above elevator is west of Main Street. This elevator is on the east side.

The elevators get rail service because this Milwaukee route is now owned by the Twin Cities & Western Railroad (TC&W) .

I looked at other views of the north side of the west elevator to see how many of them had tank cars. Every view since 2014 had tank cars. And they are delivering them to Agri Trading Fats and Oils. I also discovered that they recently rebuilt the receiving facility so that they could unload tank cars indoors.

To the west of the ADM plant is a Remington corn seed plant. Note the ADM plant in the right background.

At first, I could not find the wood elevator because it is west of town. In the town is a big storage grain elevator.
