a former Alberta Pacific Grain elevator

The planets lined up so Sharon and I hit the countryside around Vegreville late Sunday afternoon. We bagged all the farm elevators around the hamlet of Inland, most have been moved from either Vegreville or Inland to the farms they now reside upon.

This is a former Alberta Pacific Grain elevator which was moved onto a farm many years ago. If you look closely you can see a remnants of the original name "The Alberta Pacific Grain Co. Ltd." on the upper portion of the facing side. Over top of that was painted "Alberta Pacific Grain", but all that really remains of that are bits of "FIC" and parts of "AIN". I'm not sure of the original location of the elevator but they were frequently bought by farmers and moved to their land, check out the link below on how they did this:
