It was the Gannon Elevator, run by a father and his 3 sons, until it closed, and was purchased by a local farmer for his own grain storage.<br /><br />It was in business for many, many years, serving a very large area. After farmers started trucking their own grain to the terminal, and the train quit stopping for grain cars, I am sure business went down rather quickly. That sort of thing is happening across the nation as farms get larger and farmers get fewer and fewer. It is a sad time for our small towns in America.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13857547590595807709noreply@blogger.com
