I am building a grain elevator for my Wabash Columbia Branch layout and am looking for some shots of the part of these structures that actually loaded the rail cars. I have an aerial shot of the facility but I can’t make out the detail of the loader. My time period is 1963 and this was a fairly new elevator at that time, all concrete silos, and Brock drying equipment. I have searched Google and YouTube but didn’t come up with anything useful. Dose anyone have any shots they can share?
Try writing to the webmaster at

It quit raining so I went out to a local elevator and took these.
