Paul,
 
Do you know of any good photos or drawings of wood grain doors?  I've seen photos of elevators in Kansas with stacks several feet high awaiting use.

Boxcar wooden grain doors were distributed to section crews and stored. In anticipation of the shipping or harvest season the grain elevators and railroad agents would make an estimate about how many doors would be needed by each shipper and they would by dolled out as needed. They were expensive and the railroad wished to keep track and retain them so records were kept. This system and boxcar grain shipping was still prevalent in Northern Illinois in the early 70s but quickly disappeared.
