Grain elevators in Three Hills, AB, June 2018. Contributed by Steve Boyko.

There are two grain elevators remaining in Three Hills, Alberta, as well as a fertilizer elevator. One is a large ex Alberta Wheat Pool elevator and the other is an ex Parrish and Heimbecker elevator and feed mill.

These elevators in Three Hills are unusual in that they are on opposite sides of the rail line (the CN Three Hills subdivision). Most towns have all elevators on the same side of the track.

Fertilizer Elevator

This elevator was likely an Elephant brand fertilizer elevator. It has new siding and is part of a complex entitled Agrium Kneehill Soil Services Ltd.
