MJB1 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 we've all seen them , more than likely most of us have used them , but unless they're still good enough to sell on they're left in fields ,ditches & hedges , till nature starts to hide them from view , but they're still there rusting away retired from duty for many for good . in years to come they wont be recogniseable , so here's a topic to remember them by. please feel free to add to the collection of pics to remember that once these usefull machines were shiney & new . deering No3 binder well used hay turner pulled out from the brambles with felled trees vicon acrobact rake probably striped for spares & left set of trailed drags & cambridge rolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted May 24, 2009 Author Share Posted May 24, 2009 Marcus didnt you have a similar topic?? this could be a great one!, tend to see more forgotten friends than moving! not really ben, the internationals were in on my topic 'tractors & machinery on my journeys, but very rare i take pics of hedge bound or forgotten machinery , unless of course it's a tractor , but this topic is for anyone to post in , effectively it's for the machines that are past their sell by date & either replaced with a newer version & left to rust , or implements so knackered it just doesn't justify spending money to keep them going & therefore just left where they sit .

MJB1 Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 weldone james T & massey boy , any chance we could have a caption with each picture ? nothing flashy just basicly what the item is. like the class baler & set of discs james , like most machines , if they wern't inanimate , you could almost hear their thoughts saddened in neglect, i also wonder how many bales it clocked up ! cerin that first pic made me look a bit harder till i realised it's a ,or should i say it was a votex topper , same goes for the McCormick baler i wonder how many bales that ran out before it was retired great pics keep them coming chaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nashmach Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Marcus - that looks like a very early JCB to me - possibly a 65 or Hydradigger and is definetly not a 3C . I'm afraid our MF 780S could have been added in here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super6 Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Marcus - that looks like a very early JCB to me - possibly a 65 or Hydradigger and is definetly not a 3C . JCB4, these replaced the hydra-digger/loadall combination in 1960. The nearside wing is missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

05rich Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 and you found all that in the same field :o how i wish there were fields full of old machinery in weeds around here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 There was a load of other smaller stuff as well, ploughs, discs and rollers all buried in the nettles, I think this was a hay turner, probably a Bamford Wuffler or similar. I was standing on a set of blue discs when I took the photo, I think they might have been Parmiter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
