Yeah, the elevator typically gets at least one unit grain train a week (train rolls through troy normally around 2am on thursday mornings) and also recieves cuts from local trains A737 and/or A736, and probably from mixed manifests Q545, Q546, Q650, and/or Q681

That's a big elevator! I wonder if they receive unit grain?
