We noticed this small farm house with a roof covered in south facing solar panels along side a field of freshly mowed alfalfa. along US-6 in Nebraska.

This grain elevator was not like the majority. This one was not constructed of galvanized metal. These looked to be constructed more along the lines of petroleum storage tanks.

We see a lot of corn, a good bit of wheat and some alfalfa. We even spotted a few fields of potatos and some newly planted fields of soy beans.

 

 

This is a serious grain elevator

This was a very long grain train heading to the west coast I suspect. It was more than a mile long. We never found the front of the train. It did have engines in the middle. Can trains get too long? I can not recall seeing engines in the middle of a long line of loaded cars. And yes the engines in the middle were under serious power. How long can a train be?
