Who has the Fendt 1050?

That is tidy. Well done.

I've always been a fan of using a sledge on John Deere's. 😂

I see the Pacton container trailer is now available (at €115) as well as the 20ft containers (€41.90) and 40ft containers (€51.90). The containers are also available in kit form (in white) for those who want to decal them up (like me. My Dad worked for Bell Lines at one stage, so want to get some decalled up in their colours)

That's made my day. Something to put behind the Roadless Super Major to make it grunt.

Am I correct in thinking that they are using tooling what was originally in Banner Lane back in the day?

One of the most amazingly detailed dioramas I have seen.

When is Carrickdale coming up?

I got 175 decals last year to convert mine. Would much prefer if Replicagri made a 175 themseoves (without the air filter - not worried about the wheelbase)

I think it was about 20 years ago. Where does the time go? I remember a number of us travelled over to Spalding around that time and some of the lads stopped off to see the diorama as it was close to their route to the show.

These two can be found on eBay every so often, if you want an 80s/90s pick up. I believe the moulds are now owned by https://atlantis-models.com , so there is a possibility they could be reissued at some stage

They had an unbelievable diorama back about 20+ years ago. Much of it with hand made models.

Why would they be right to refuse a vaccine for a very debilitating virus? Whatever about someone not wanting to protect themselves and their families, they have no place in a work environment where they could infect their colleagues, including colleagues who are either immune compromised themselves or have family members who are immune compromised. Compensate them with a P45 and give them the door.

Yes, but looks even better again in red and white.

The T8 is too heavy. That's why they developed the T7 HD to fill that gap. It worked, so now they have increased the power of the HD to 340hp.

They were made by MiniAgriPassion in Belgium back around 2020. A very simple and straightforward model to build. It's not showing on their website now though, although there is a new kit for a 6m header. https://www.miniagripassion.be/kits-map/42-kit-chariot-barre-de-coupe-6-metres.html

Closer to home, I could imagine Olly Harrison trying that up Liverpool way. He did a comparison between the turning circle of a Xerion and a Quad-Trac last week.

Here's a comparison with the T7070 by ROS which was the previous range topper when it was introduced in 2009.

That would get you most of the way, but you'd still have to swap smaller wheels. The T7.300 has taller wheels than the T7.270

Two high sided Ransomes are on my wish list. I kept putting them off until it was too late.

That's a 1975 Cork reg.

Four More Steyrs. That's ten in the last couple of months if you include the Marshall 844 and 944 🙄 Essentially a pair of T5.130s, a T6.180 and T7.300 with CVT transmissions in Cork colours 😄
