This facility has a capacity of 10 million bushels of grain!  Note its size compared to the automobile seen just left of center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also note the variety of freight cars at right.  We can see boxcars from the Santa Fe, the Chesapeake and Ohio, the New York Central, a wooden truss rod Great Northern, and a round top Seaboard Air Line (labeled for automobile and furniture loading).  Also in the mix is a Pennsylvania gondola.  An interesting variety indeed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lacentralrr.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Giant-ATSF-Grain-Elevator.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"748\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lacentralrr.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Giant-ATSF-Grain-Elevator.jpg\" alt=\"Giant AT&amp;SF Grain Elevator\" class=\"wp-image-2393\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lacentralrr.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Giant-ATSF-Grain-Elevator.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lacentralrr.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Giant-ATSF-Grain-Elevator-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lacentralrr.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Giant-ATSF-Grain-Elevator-768x561.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lacentralrr.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Giant-ATSF-Grain-Elevator-600x438.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.lacentralrr.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Giant-ATSF-Grain-Elevator-411x300.jpg 411w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During his trip out west on the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe back in March of 1943, Jack Delano spied this enormous grain elevator while they were crossing Kansas.
