So how much would a second hand parlour like that be worth Graham direct line i take it or have the jars been removed  :-\ :-\ :o

the parlour was direct line simon that one was £8000.  then the cost of getting it out and installing again, it is not going back in the same size it will be put back in as a 10x10 plus it will have feeders

Interesting to see a dump box and blower like that Graham.

The Steyr is the CVX in Steyr colours looks much nicer I must say ;D

the dump box looks very tired i must say but they still use it i think they stuggle to keep up with the forager with it ,  i have never came across a steyr before i thought it looked ok to nash  ;)

im no expert but i would like to see it push a 18t load of silage up a 45degree sloap brfore the next one gets there

and that has three other tractors helping

and its not pushing much

and ist not a very steep sloap

and its maize which is easier to clapm unlike grsass in my oppinion it dosent all bunch and lump like grass

No your not an expert, because 400hp with wide tracks could easily push and roll 18tonne of silage up a 45 degree slope. If a 180hp wheeled shovel can, a Piste Bully would easy.

Why do you think they use Bulldozers for stack work in US/NZ?  ;)

That big MAN was in one of the trucking mags a year or two ago with it's previous owner Graham. Can't remember the guys name but I think he ran three with lightbars, alloy wheels, bull bars the works.

I love that farmyard, what a stunning place. See where you get your inspiration from now mate.

Nice pics there Graham......Don't think even I would have climbed up the silos for pics though - I'd have to keep both hands on the ladder if I did so wouldn't have room for the camera...... :D;)

used to love going up the top of our big permastore, lovley views, especially when they were doing low flying arround the area, almost felt like you were along side them as they used them for route o nthe exercises, would quite oftern fly over and turn using it as a land mark
