The grain elevator at Glass, Manitoba was moved to a nearby private farm in the 1970s after it was retired. The elevator was still lettered for the Scottish Co-Operative Wholesale Society Ltd. It was used to fill the adjacent silos.

The elevator was demolished in late summer 2015. Reportedly the elevator was starting to lean toward the silos. This was the last Scottish Co-Operative Wholesale Society elevator standing.
