Grain Elevators

Undated aerial view of grain elevators at the Thunder Bay waterfront.

 

Text on the back reads:

"A few of the 20 Terminal Grain Elevators situated on the Thunder Bay Harbour. Cement bins 110 feet high flank the work-house in the centre, where grain is received from rail cars, cleaned, sorted, purified, graded, certified, and then stored in the bins to await shipment by vessel. Total capacity of the elevators is 90,425,000 million bushels of grain."
