The little hopper on the spur at Kelly Rd. in Cloverdale. This appears to have been track 555 a siding for Mollala Forest Product Company. If you look at historic aerials for this site, the 1971 shows that the field to the east of his hopper was a large mill complex. Not there in '53, still there in '93 although looks abandoned. Mollala purchased some timber in CA somewhere and relocated a mill from Mollala, OR down to Cloverdale. Eventually this mill ended up in Masonite's hands.
