The Tractor Twitcher

New Holland T6.175 I completed a testimonial on in early 2019.

The Red Arrows out on the same day back in December 2018. Not the best photos, but couldn't do much else with the 18-105mm lens that was on the front of my camera at the time.

New Holland CR10.90 at work close to home in 2019. This particular example was one of the first sold in the UK. It was swapped last year for a new Claas Lexion 8900.

John Deere 1085 at work on a small farm in East Yorkshire back in 2019.

Fantastic silage scene mate, really well photographed too. 🙂

Absolutely brilliant, great to see.

Can't imagine heavy work being too kind on drive-line/transmission components, and systems.

I remember the McCormick version from a few years ago, a friend of mine showed me a brochure on that machine. Likewise I can't see there being much demand for them if any at all, certainly not for heavy draft work. This was the first time I saw one at Cereals in 2003.

Four Multi-Farmer models currently available in the UK. Fascinated to see if any farmers are using them for land work. I've seen them on demo for many years since my first trip to Cereals back in 2003 where there was one yoked to a McConnell Shakerator. 🙂

Love looking back over photos like this where there was little more time taken for breaks and catching up with colleagues. 🙂

Still yet to see one working on a farm like this. Only ever seen them on demonstration at shows before.

Very smart tractors. That particular example was one of two that belonged to a contractor. Tiny bit gutted I never caught up with them baling together before they were sold to make way for a pair of John Deere 6R tractors.
