A 30,000-bushel wooden grain elevator at Inglis, on the CPR Russell Subdivision in what is now the Rural Municipality of Riding Mountain West, was built in 1922 by Paterson Grain. A balloon annex was built beside it in 1949, increasing its total capacity to 65,000 bushels. A second annex built in 1953 raised the capacity to 90,000 bushels. Closed in 1995, the complex is now part of a museum.
