It was good, but making me feel old because I hauled many thousands of
bushels of grain to local elevators like that one. Although we had the
hopper cars here . Also never saw that method of moving cars. At one
time they kept an old tractor handy for that purpose but mostly they had
a big winch and rope that did the car moving.
I doubt theres any wooden grain elevators like that one still in use
here in Sask. now.
