This is a lonely abandoned elevator in the middle of nowhere. To see how lonely this place is just type "Baring, Saskatchewan" into Google Maps. I do not think this was ever anything more than just a rail siding.
Not knowing too much about grain elevators, I wonder what the little building was used for. Perhaps this was a commercial enterprise at one time and it served as an office?
Very enjoyable viewing, thanks mate. This is my first visit to your site, and I will put you in my “circuit” of favourites. Keep at it, and regards from NZ.
That first shot is classic prairie beauty.
ReplyDeleteLove this series of pictures, but you are right. Lonely is a good description.
