Album: 2/7/2013 update

Looking north at new Hancock Elevator arrangement. Bins closest to the spur used to be on the aisle side of the original elevator structure, but were increased in height and moved to the back to allow the benchwork to be skinnied down. Hillside on the right was cut back, and taller bins were moved back further to accommodate the new arrangement. The entire structure was painted with Rustoleum Flat Aluminum.

The more I look at this photo, the more I realize I need to excavate more of the hillside so I can spread the grain bins out more, better matching the prototype's footprint.
