Seeing as our local tractor run was cancelled, John (JMD) and myself along with Dave "dodgy" Holden, We had a small run of our own up and around the Valley up towards the border with North Yorkshire, taking in a couple of refreshment stops and a good bacon and sausage sandwich, we did neck end of 60 miles and despite a bad forecast only see one shower of rain Anyhow a couple of photo's, appologies for no on route photo's as i was trying to concentrate on the route i'd rekkied the weekend before

Be a nice selection of Muirhills there John, although i'm sure you need to squeeze another one in to make it a nice round half dozen... five is a bit of a cob number really -

Valley Axeman's 32nd scale Nuffs and Leylands
Valley Axe Man replied to Valley Axe Man's topic in Share Your Collection
Cheers James, thanks for the kind words, yep though i think there is still a few more winch tractors needed in the collection, your right about how things have moved on though, even in the progress of yourself over the years on here, there's alot gone one in the progress of a lot of folk's work including one or two dark horses too.... Phil was a happy as a pig in the proverbial if he was on with a project, didn't have to be flash or fancy but it always seemed to turn out how it did, maybe a natural talent or just good at what he did.... he'll never be forgotten though -
Amongst the celebrity stars on the run (well if you follow tractorbarn's Serious Grass) were non other than Tom Woodhouse who features his 2100 in the first dvd, was also Oliver Greenwood on his little grey fergy who works on Andrew Atkinson's farm near Lancaster, Andrew himself turned up although only as a spectator and not on the run itself
