Great photo of a very important part of agriculture.
Marketing and grain storage and hauling.

This is a six wheel switching locomotive from about 1918-20. Many were built for different railroads.
Models of this engine are available. A sister engine, 4466 still exists.
Today, most big elevators have rather old diesel locomotives for switching and linking up
long unit trains.

Now that is neat. I am very interested in steam locomotives and my favorite railroad is Union Pacific. As I type this there is a movie on the UP Big Boys on. I spent hours researching and planning a N scale model railroad but then I was given a tractor....
