CMB Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Those are awesome shots Joe. Don't see enough MF combines, new and old around here. At Kemble we would sometimes have both 780s in one field if we wanted to chew through one block a day. One evening even saw 5 of us on trailers servicing both combines, with a third contractor combine working nearby and all trailers tipping in one barn. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Chris,the farm they were working don't have any combines,so no idea where they came from,or went,there is one Massey,a 42 maybe locally,but I've never been fortunate enough to capture it,,,yet, Regards Joe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a bit of a legend that tractor having clocked around 25,000 of very hard hours before the clock stopped a few years back, they estimate it to be around the 30k hour mark now with no major breakdowns. And by hard hours I mean hard hours, that tractor was absolutely dogged by them in it's younger days and it wasn't that many years ago it was retired to the hedger but she is still going strong. I've spent a few hours carting grass with that and it was the tractor that persuaded my dad that something as modern as a 40 series wouldn't be a bad investment haha. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
