One of the illustrationsshows clearly the flexibility of the pneumatic system forcar unloading. As may be seen the main duct extendsthe full length of the building and a connection can bemade opposite any car. The siding shown in the illustra-tion closely adjoins the building. However, this is notan essential with these systems as the hose lines mayeasily be extended to reach remote tracks. It should alsobe noted that the car unloading may be accomplished with-out the removal of the grain doors. Another of the illustrations shows the application of thepneumatic conveyor to warehouse service re-handling system permits one conveyor to serve both the firstand second floors without interference with teams or truck-ing. A third illustration shows a typical installation forhandling Handling Ashes Pneumatic Station for Unloading Grain Cars
