robbo Posted January 11, 2022 Author Share Posted January 11, 2022 Another tractor with a bit of a story to it. Apparently it has around 12,000 hours and has been remapped to give over 250 HP, it is also been tested at 61kph on the road so is a bit of a flyer 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbo Posted February 15, 2022 Author Share Posted February 15, 2022 Had to go to a village in central Lancashire last week and saw this one displayed outside a pub, can't remember the name of the pub but I suspect that The Valley Axeman will know it 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did some drunk customer forget his wallet, or forget he drove it to the pub and left it there? Or are you reminding Valley Axeman he left it there and pick it up someday? 😄 Edited February 15, 2022 by New Hollander 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I not been on that road for a good few years so that's why I not seen it 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted March 30, 2022 Author Share Posted March 30, 2022 I had to go along the A14 past Cambridge yesterday and I stopped off at Ben Burgess as they are right alongside the road. Obviously had a number of Deeres on display, both new and second hand 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted March 30, 2022 Author Share Posted March 30, 2022 As well as the Deeres there were a number of others that I assume they have taken in as part-exchange 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 I was out and about in North Wales today and came across this classic just outside Prestatyn and the unmistakable characteristic chatter of the Ford engine. It struck me how small this tractor appeared to be compared with the monsters that are on most farms nowadays. Looks as if it has had some recent new tyres to cope with the ploughing 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a good few 5030s, but the 3 pot 4630 is the most common model of that series around my area. I had one on loan from a neighbour last year on a log splitter. Good little tractor.

robbo Posted May 29, 2022 Author Share Posted May 29, 2022 Currently in Florida Disney and saw these 2 on the Indiana Jones stunt show set. The JCB is easy enough to identify but couldn't get closer to the other, I would suggest that it is a New Holland Genesis that bends in the middle but stand to be corrected on that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built in Fargo, ND. Based on a TM engine, hydrostatic gearbox and TS rear end. Seat, controls and dashboard can turn. Bends in the middle. Not very common in Europe, but there are some in the UK and Sweden. Edited May 29, 2022 by New Hollander 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
