The 1255 is a better base model. I've pm'd you a link to a Dutch seller who has some.

That is awesome. Who made the International with the Fritz cab?

The field across the road from Farm Power (JD Dealer) was knocked yesterday. I had visions of getting a photo of a Blue fleet pulling out of it today, but they must have lifted it over night. An awful of of Tier 4b blues in otherwise green and yellow fleets around Cork. The tide is turning.

Met a 1455 with a 14 ton silage trailer between Tullamore and Kilbeggan. Then I met a second one. Then a third. The first was a transition model, the other two were facelift models. Rory Day needs to know about this methinks.

Want. Would love to see more Grimme models being made.

I love it when he does this.

I have a collection of 1:32 scale Prodrive Rothmans rally cars, but I don't have the original of the species, the 911 SC RS. Today I found out that SlotWings have done a boxed set of two of the three UK registered 911 SC RS, A974BRX and A454BJB as they ran in the 1985 Tour De Corse. Billy Coleman drove BRX to 4th in the 85 Tour De Corse and BJB to 5th in the 85 Circuit of Ireland. But there is no way I can justify £335 for the boxed set. This makes me sad. (although I am off down the shop to buy a Lotto ticket) https://www.pendleslotracing.co.uk/porsche-911sc-rothmans-tour-de-course-1985.html

Looks like it will be 2022 before the NH Methane tractors are available. Construction of biodigesters at each farm unit continues. https://www.farmersjournal.ie/cnh-is-on-target-with-methane-powered-tractors-by-2022-458349

What he said.

Very tasty. Well done.

NZG have announced a 1:32 scale Weidemann 1160 eHoftrac https://www.weidemann.de/en/hoftrac/model/1160-ehoftrac/

UH County 1174

Am I correct in thinking that the Luxxum is the T5, the Maxxum is the T6, the Puma is the T7 and the Optum is the T7HD?

Took me a couple of minutes to warm to this one. Haynes 100 year anniversary model with the first tractor they ever sold in 1919.

Is the A frame removable? I'm pondering a 4.56 or 4.57 to replace the Fendt 309 and preceed the Fendt 509C.

Have you checked the box for the mirrors for the 8400. They came seperate if I remember correctly.

What eejit designed the anti-clockwise one way system in a country that drives on the left? More to the point, I use this weather radar to see what is heading my way. Can be helpful at times like this. https://www.netweather.tv/live-weather/radar

A local contractor stores some machines in the sheds behind my house. He arrived up earlier to take out a machine with a brand new Fendt 724. It replaced a T6080 (boo hiss) His other tractors are a 415, a 718 and a John Q T6.215R

I reckon we have less than 10 days of this dry weather before it breaks. Is the Valtra a 4 pot or 6 pot? Looks nice in that colour.

And now we have a possible solution for the horticulture enterprise. And doesn't that bonnet line look gorgeous. Especially in that colour. A real tractor.

A French brand called Richier. Bought out by Ford in the 1970s when they decided to get into the Construction Equipment sector. http://tractors.wikia.com/wiki/Richier

Loving this. I'm building a similiar one, but I cheated by cutting down a New Ray. Are you working to measurements from a real one, or from a rough plan? I'd love to see the detail of the rear axle set up.

The 2018 Diary is now online. No new machinery though. http://thriplow-farms.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/2018.pdf
