Conveyor belts inside the galleries transfer grain from scales to shipping spouts. The height of the galleries permit ships with high superstructures to be loaded and as the galleries can extend into deeper water, vessels with deeper draft can berth alongside. Shipping galleries can also provide a greater number of berths as ships can tie up on each side of the gallery. 3, record 1, English, - shipping%20gallery

[...] La hauteur des galeries au-dessus de l'eau permet de charger des bateaux à superstructures élevées et, en eaux plus profondes, les bateaux à plus fort tirant d'eau peuvent s'amarrer plus facilement à l'appontement. Les appontements permettent à plus de bateaux de s'amarrer puisque les bateaux peuvent s'y placer de chaque côté. 1, record 1, French, - galerie%20d%27exp%C3%A9dition
