The grain elevator in Castor, Alberta was originally built in 1917 for the Alberta Pacific Grain Company. Over time it was owned by Federal Grain, the Alberta Wheat Pool, and finally UGG before closing in the mid-1990s.

It is owned by the Castor & District Museum and includes several preserved rail cars.
