Hey Guys:

The link will take you to a short film on a Railway Grain Elevator operation. I found the whole thing rather beuatiful especially the timelessness of it. It was shot in 1981.

Pay particular attention to the motive power shunting the grain boxcar and that it's NOT a special Grain type car!

Hope you enjoy!?

Just watched the video- those accents sure sound familiar to this Minnesota boy!
That could have been a small town anywhere in the upper Midwest (US) as well.
Very nice work. Thank you for sharing it with us!
