Dusty Dan Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Very interesting, especially the old Fordson from the RAF. Of course being over here I have never seen anything like it. Do you know how old it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirely Posted May 31, 2019 Author Share Posted May 31, 2019 The Fordson is a Roadless Half-Track used by the RAF during WWII. The Air Ministry first placed an order in 1936. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 blimey good to see that old fergi 100 series still going strong, can remember that one from at least 15 years ago now, cant imagine they have swapped it , the ford 3000 seems new, if that was up by the hanger at the top , behind the main one, not part of the museum as such , last time i went they had a proper tug tractor there, no idea what brand it was mind .
