Railcar grain loading facility
Title:  Railcar grain loading facility
Description:  This photo shows most of a facility where grain is loaded into railroad cars. It's located in Lynn Center, IL, and I took this photo on 1-8-2012. A few cars were parked near this facilty, to the left, and there were several more to the right (north), behind me in this picture. I'm not sure what role or function the former containers had here but this would be an interesting, but perhaps difficult, industry to model: lots of action in a small space, with a siding, sloping road, level right of way, and so forth. This view looks basically southwest.

Right of way, looking north
Title:  Right of way, looking north
Description:  This view looks north to northeast at Lynn Center, IL on 1-8-2012. These are the BNSF tracks between Galesburg and the Quad Cities (Moline and Rock Island, IL with Davenport and Bettendorf, IA). I almost didn't see the concrete foundation in the lower right corner, near the sign, which may have been the site of a station, depot, or some other structure. Also, I'm not sure of the history of the road off to the right, whether it was an actual road or a former railroad line. Any historians with details, please feel free to add what you know!
