I really look forward to your silo pics but must say, it hurts my heart to see them decay like these.

Unusual looking critter - the tall end of it kind of reminds me of a grain elevator.

It’s tough to tell exactly what this one was meant to store.

Very cool pictures. I wish I could have seen them in their prime!!

Is it next to an abandon railroad track?

Just think of the investment then, what that took in time and manpower to build that, maintain it....
Thanks for sharing. GG Wes

It’s not.
The TC&W (the old Milwaukee Road) lies about 2 miles south of and the old Luce Line is about 10 miles north.

Is it in Renville, McLeod or Carver county Minnesota?

There must be quite a story behind that building.

Renville.
2 sections north of Bird Island.

 

[INCase]

that would have taken some figuring and tinkering to build the roof on top of those silos/bins.

Did you get the PM I sent you a while back?

I think so. I don’t recall the topic.

 

[Rich'sToys]

I had just sent you a couple pics. Didn't know if you were interested or not.

 

[Jim Wendt]

Those look like they would require a hike to check them out, a little investigation seems to be needed. Looks like an on farm elevator to me..

I found them. (Little clumsy on the tech side)
Maybe as an ode to spring training I’ll do a double header.

Thanks,

I know of at least one other one. Don't have a picture yet, but when I do, I'll send you that one also.
