phil phoenix Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I caught up with the 728 the day after as it was on demo to local Fendt user Bill Legge Farm's. Apparently it hugely impressed on their Sumo Trio, pulling it as well as their Gen 5 Fendt 936!! And faster than their Fastrac 4220 Icon. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil phoenix Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 As promised earlier, the pictures of the awesome new New Holland CR11 in action at A.L.Lee's farm near Littleport, Cambs. T7.340HD in attendance. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil phoenix Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 I now realize that the Landpower TV team were in the field filming when I was photographing the CR. I can see the show's presenter sitting in the drivers seat in my pics although he is in the passenger seat on the video's trailer. Also on this picture of the machine going up the field you can see one of Waldersley Farms three JD X9s in action. A nice combine as well, but not as eye catching as the big yellow combine with the fancy Macdon header. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tractor Twitcher Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 I was lucky enough to visit one of New Holland's CR11 dealer demonstration days further north on behalf of one of the magazines I write for earlier this week. Very impressive combine. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil phoenix Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Getting close to the end of harvest 2024. Found another T7300 NH on my patch which was nice and yet another flippin JD X9...............must be nearly 20 or so on my patch now, sooner NH CR11 comes out the better😁 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil phoenix Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 It took me all of harvest 2024 to finally get pictures of a local farms new Lexion combine which had replaced a 770 machine. Everytime I saw it, it was about a mile away on private land. Finally yestereday it was harvesting the very last field of beans by the road, and the end of harvest 2024. Claas Lexion 8800. And Maize harvest 2024 begins. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 I think the local farm has finished combining now - and I didn’t manage to see any other combines whilst I had the camera with me this year though I don’t think there are any new ones about.

phil phoenix Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 No old ones around my area working anymore. Even Claas Dominators which were common 5 years ago seem to be vanishing along with all small holders. However there is one brand that bucks the trend locally, Massey Ferguson, I have seen more of the Droningborg harvesters this year than when they used to be new!! Mainly 1990+ 38s &40s with the black reels as opposed to the red and brown cutters on the very early 88/89 spec machines. In this picture you can see one farmer has two early 40rs machines in one field, whilst in the background an older 38 machine was chomping away. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil phoenix Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 A relatively rare sight in these parts, a green Deutz Fahr 7250 and field chaser. Black ones😎 are more common. One of the locals had a metallic green one last year that looked like a large green bottle fly, but since their dealer ceased trading I notice they have a new black 8280 this year which looks much nicer. Black really suits Deutz more than most brands. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
