farmernick06 Posted April 9, 2007 Author Share Posted April 9, 2007 OK well Saturday morning i think it was i was doing my walk and going round the mound when two McCormicks came and they've moved the pipe trolley and irrigators so i'll get you your measurements when i find it again Ben This morning i ticked off another of my must photograph machines, it hasn't been over the fields for a little while i think it had a bit of work done to it and by the looks of things a much needed wash. I missed it in action but luckily the guy had forgot to shut the door to the trailer so i got a few quick snaps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know in the winter they drove on the field because the track gets absoelutly abliterated all i know is he pushed the 2650 to the max on that field he went 'flat out' And there were some kids messing around on the mound \ I was going to tell them about the pesticides but then they offered me a biscuit and i didn't want to freak them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmernick06 Posted April 9, 2007 Author Share Posted April 9, 2007 Oh and forgot i took this. From Saturday morning i saw it coming and got the camera ready but i forgot to change the button from album to photo so it took me a while and by the time i finally changed it i only caught this one Im presuming it's a McCormick CX 105 but im not quite sure. Correct me if im wrong And this is only the 3rd different coloured tractor apart from green i've ever seen over those fields of 14 years of going over there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Mart And health and safety i imagine theres quite a few lads who do the dumping shift and they all wear them im not sure if they have to or not \ Imagine if they got injured down there it would take a while before someone would find them But its probably something completely different but thats what i thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmernick06 Posted April 14, 2007 Author Share Posted April 14, 2007 Cheers Will and yeah the guys who work on the farm down the road all get tractors when they're 15 and often choose Fords but i would love a 2650. Although they used to scare the hell out of me Anyway today as i approached the irrigation unit and McCormick CX105 ( Confirmed ) came up .. and a few minutes later another came up So sneakily got a few photos as the two eastern european guys didn't look too happy to see me there.
