ABSTRACT:
A device for unloading grain from a grain storage complex to railroad cars positioned on a railroad siding extending thereby. An overhead track structure is positioned above the railroad car and has a crane longitudinally and laterally movably mounted thereon. A vertically movable loading spout is secured to the crane and extends downwardly therefrom for delivering grain to the hatch openings of the railroad cars. The upper end of the vertically movable tube is universally connected to the lower end of a telescopic delivery tube which has its upper end universally connected to a spout extending from the grain storage facility. The operator may move the crane longitudinally and laterally with respect to the railroad car so that the grain may be loaded into various parts of the car without moving the same.
