Silage 2007 - Ireland


SPN

Recommended Posts

I decided to take a spin today and lo and behold, there was a convoy of Murphy Bros. tractors lining up in a field beside the main road.

Enjoy!

(There's 18 pictures in this, so if you are on dial-up ...........)

First up is the Fendt 926 reverse drive with Claas 3 gang.

I'm sure this little baby will go down well with some of you.

Here are resized pics of the 7530. This is an animal of a tractor. When I saw the Siku model I thought they had screwed up the proportions, but it really is a 6620 on steroids with a Tristopher sized cab.

Here is a picture of Hanley's Jag 8550 mower. They were baling silage with a big McHale outfit at the site of the new Racecourse today (they had some big red thing - what are they called again? - driving the baler, but it was too far from the road). I think I know where the 8550 was heading so I might be able to get some pics of their full outfit tomorrow.

Mulhearne's yard was full of TMs and Thorpe trailers. No sign of the Big M or the rakes. I'll have a look for them tomorrow.

I love this time of year!  :D

Ye are a bit behind there Stan - the Ramsgrange lads are out since last week and the 7810 Silver Jubilee is going like a devil..... ;D

Yep the 900 is some machine Martin Kehoe has one too and only uses four trailers but I never yet seen them able to keep up  :D , some early Dooley trailers there too with the ram on the front ;)

Can't resist but one of the earlier pics is best with the Fendt's bonnet up...... ;D ;D
