The pack on top of this page includes paper model downloads for a big red timber barn and a tall red grain elevator which can be assembled using discarded cardboard from the kitchen cupboard. The printable barn and grain elevator plans can be made from cardboard as ho scale farm buildings, or n scale farm buildings depending on the size of your model railroad.

The textures on these printable plans are wonderfully true-to-life giving the impression the timber farm buildings where constructed many years ago and have weathered wind, rain, extreme sunshine, and possibly even snow conditions. Indeed, they are very authentic looking HO scale and N scale farm buildings.

The grain elevator paper model is spectacular so we’ll talk a little about the history of grain elevators on farms in the US. A grain elevator is basically facility designed for the stockpile or storage of grain. A grain elevator is a tower with bucket elevator (or pneumatic conveyor) which scoops up the grain from the bottom level and delivers it in a giant silo or other such storage facility. Look closely at the scale model farm buildings here and you’ll see how big these structures can be. The pack deal on top includes a large red barn with silo and a very tall grain elevator half price.

Typically, a grain elevator could also refer to the entire elevator complex which might include a receiving and testing office, even a weighbridge, and associated storage facilities.

Prior to the introduction of grain elevators, the grain was generally handled and moved in bags or sacks rather than in bulk comprising large amounts of loose grain. The Dart’s Elevator was an early innovation in Buffalo, New York around 1842 and 1843. The inventor was Joseph Dart, who was a merchant, and Robert Dunbar who was an engineer. These two gentlemen pioneered the marine leg, a device that scooped the loose grain from out of the hulls of vessels, before lifting it to the top level of a marine tower. Dunbar and Dart modeled their invention using the Oliver Evans steam-powered flour mills.
