The town of Shaunavon, Saskatchewan has two grain elevators. Both are former Saskatchewan Wheat Pool elevators – the former “C” and “F” elevators, on opposite sides of the railway track.

This photo shows four grain elevators in Shaunavon. The closest is a Matheson Grain Co. Ltd. elevator. The second is under construction, and the third is a Pioneer Grain Co. Ltd. elevator. I believe the fourth, older style elevator is an Alberta Pacific elevator.
