Historic Sites of Manitoba: MEC Grain Elevator / Wiley Low Grain Elevator / Federal Grain Elevator (Fallison, Municipality of Louise)

A wooden grain elevator at the Fallison siding, on the CPR Fallison Subdivision in what is now the Municipality of Louise, was built in 1916 by the Manitoba Elevator Commission. It was later owned by Wiley Low and Company (1926-1932) and Federal Grain (1932-1962). In 1962, it was demolished and the wood was used to build an elevator at Snowflake.
