Vanished Prairie Sentinel

Old grain elevators are disappearing from the prairies. The elevator at Punnichy Saskatchewan was photographed from the VIA Rail streamliner "The Canadian" in 2014. Built in 1912 the elevator survived another eight years before demolition in September 2019.

The elevator has gone but The Canadian survives and continues to offer insight into, as well as transportation across, this vast country.
