The Dagon grain silo sits adjacent to Haifa Central railway station. It is huge, over 200' high with a capacity of 100,000 tons. It was built in 1953 and is visible all over the city of Haifa. Still in use today the grain arrives in ships, mainly from Russia and Ukraine, as seen here. Grain is distributed from Haifa by both road transport and rail and railway hopper wagons can be seen in the siding underneath. 29th March 2019.
