Question:

Anyone know what this picture is? Some sort of grain silo?

http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/8747/siloh.jpgI took this photo at a local city here in Indiana. On the outskirts of town, there is this giant building over a railroad.I asked my father, and he told me that it was used for grain (And/or other items) to be transferred onto trains back in the day. You can see the marks underneath the tower (in real life... not in the picture.) show that there was some form of conveyor pulley system.My question?Anyone know what the actual name of this building is?Like... not just quot;Grain buildingquot; but an actual term? :D

Answer:

Grain Elevator. Final answer. :)
