Rebuttal presentation of Alberta Wheat Pool, Manitoba Pool Elevators [and] Saskatchewan Wheat Pool to the Commission on the Costs of Transporting Grain by Rail
Bulk grain is transported to the top of the grain elevator through the use of an endless cup conveyor, also known as the leg. Once at the top of the structure the grain can then flow down via a network of ducts into the various bins and pieces of equipment.
