This Image was processed into a Black and white Image with Topaz Platinum.
Grain elevators were invented in 1842 by Joseph Dart and Robert Dunbar in Buffalo, New York to address the problem of unloading and storing grain transported via the Erie Canal. Grain Elevators were adapted to suit the loading and storage requirements of grains transported from farmland via the railroad. The 'Country Elevators' became known as the "Sentinels of the Prairie", "Prairie Cathedrals" and "Prairie Skyscrapers". These tall, house-like structures became common features of the railroads and dotted the Great Plains landscape in the latter half of the nineteenth century during the Industrial Revolution in America.
