Belarusfan Posted August 22, 2007 Author Posted August 22, 2007 Excellent photos! Thanks Joe very nice, some oldies earning their keep there, i take it they are all local to you? Yep all local Quote
CX820Joe Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I can't remember the last time I saw an MF combine at work, they seem really rare in Shropshire for some reason. There was a farm near Wem that had 2 865's but they have probably gone now. I think i've got some photos of a 440 somewhere though, and a 750 - where they are I don't know though! Quote
nashmach Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 At last - any audio effects for us of the 6cyl Perkins Lovely pics and machines Chris Quote
dwain Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 some old girls there but look's as thay have plenty of life in them yet Quote
Tractorman810 Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 your a lucky boy to have all those grest oldies nearby to you, Quote
NewHolland2 Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 It looks as if someone's came and robbed our barn of it's two working combines...... Nice pictures mate......Made up for the lack of 525 pictures from myself so far...... ;) Quote

You do have that lovely E517 and the 2 IH machines though.... :) Much more interesting At last - any audio effects for us of the 6cyl Perkins Lovely pics and machines Chris Afriad not, there is 1 more 525 I hope to catch, will try and remember to take a video if I get it some old girls there but look's as thay have plenty of life in them yet I think they'll be going for a while yet your a lucky boy to have all those grest oldies nearby to you, I guess so, it's very varied here, other local machines include various MF Cereas, Lexion 480s, Lexion 580, etc. It looks as if someone's came and robbed our barn of it's two working combines...... Nice pictures mate......Made up for the lack of 525 pictures from myself so far...... ;) Thanks Quote
ihatepoundland Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I haven't seen a single MF combine working this summer.....no wonder, they are all with you! Quote
ihatepoundland Posted August 25, 2007 Posted August 25, 2007 I haven't seen a single MF combine working this summer.....no wonder, they are all with you! Someone obviously read this...saw one today! Quote
britainswomble Posted August 26, 2007 Posted August 26, 2007 Nice combines and great to see them still working. Still don't think they quite have the charm of the early 400,500 amd 515's. I think the early ones with the rounded engine cover and exposed rotating radiator screen looked the best of them all. Quote
Lord Ferguson Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 Some cracking pics Chris... many thanks for posting... I woner how many more years we will see these beasts of the early 80's running for... Pics like that take me back to my apprenticeship days of the early 80's - getting home black and itchy and 10pm - wash... down the pub, then back in for 7.30am to do it all again... 6 days per week - Sundays asleep all day I agree with you though William... the sight and sound of a 515 at full pelt is hard to beat.. Eeeee..... Chris you have put a smile on my face today.... thanks mate Quote
