Dusty Dan Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 They are really fantastic! The last that I knew of, the state of Pennsylvania uses Ford tractors for highway maintenance in the cutting and trimming of median strips and roadside grass cutting. In the summer as I travel the interstate highways in Pa., I have occasionally seen the Fords at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hajo Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I really like these forestry models. There is a Britains model over here waiting for many years now to be converted into a forestry tractor, now I have a good idea for colour. Did you use any paint particulair, a brand, code, whatever? And those Britains models ... almost to die for! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. i'm hoping to get more models on at some point, a lot of the earlier pics seem to have disappeared as well so i may have to try and re-post. Unfortunately this is only a very small portion of the collection as its mostly in storage, one day i hope to get it all pictured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watermill Posted April 6, 2019 Author Share Posted April 6, 2019 Fantastic tractors in the day, biggest tractors that I used to see in Kent back then, I managed to find this one a couple of years ago, only done 4400 hrs. So pleased at last to have a good 4850 1/32 model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Dan Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 You do have a beautiful model tractor there, congratulations! And I know what you mean about the packaging, I have struggled to get model tractors and die cast race cars from their packaging materials. I suppose they want to make sure they are not damaged in shipping, but it is a pain sometimes. Appreciate all the close up photos too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watermill Posted April 8, 2019 Author Share Posted April 8, 2019 Hi Brian, i must admit i haven't unboxed a UH model for ages, haven't unboxed much at all really, but couldn't resist getting the 4850 out - even though the cab interior is the wrong brown That 4850 took ages to get out, in the end i had to cut the polystyrene off to get to the screws.
