Well Mark, at that farm it was an MF4370 no less. With a 12t Webcox and a 12t Richard Western to keep me going. In the winter an 8t Webcox was also added. Hauls were between 1/4 mile and 3 miles from the farm. Same farm we did silage at with a 6480 and the Western with its silage sides on.

Pete, them TX combines are fantastic machines and owe alot to the very similar, earlier 8000 series. I enjoy using them apart from the very short feeder house making for back and neck ache!!

Thanks for all your comments people :)

Right, pictorial updates in order from August 21st. A little bit of ploughing for a new ley. Didn't get to do much this year  :( I like ploughing but it usually takes place when my labour isn't needed sadle. 8360 with the Kuhn 5f. The loader is on for wieght only, we didn't have a tractor in the yard to put the wafer pack on!

Some servicing on the Moore Unidrill, I took off all the bearing caps and filled with grease where needed and removed and reset the discs/hubs where needed too. It doesn't do a huge amount of acres but this drill is superb for grass and turnips. No electrics, it's merely 'a pull it out of the nettles and go' machine and it's owner and customers are very fond of it.

Then it was time to take on another TM155 from another chap I am working for who makes up the group I run on grass and maize with and . . .  oh it's all very complicated. . .  the guy with the TX and TF (and 8360, 8340 and TM165) is also in the same group so I ferry around between them for different work.

My first load of maize comes in.

This is one memeber of the group - we just happened to all be ready at the same time one morning so I couldn't not get a shot of his three classics waiting for the off. 8340 on the Krone Swadro 761, 8360 on the McHale HS2000 and TM165 on the BR7070  :)8)

The next day we were at the same farm and a bearing went in the corn cracker which was just as well. . .  The farmer had bought in 200t of maize from another farmer and hauling it in were two 7530's, a 7810, an MF and a Claas Arion. A Fendt 924 was on the pit. I got a few photo's of them before I went to the pub  ;D while we waited for the corn cracker to be fixed.
