NewHolland2 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Nice pics there Joe, it's obviously your turn to get the better weather now as we're nowhere near getting cutting again thanks to the damp/rain........ Looks like a big snouted Massey carting off from the 460 too........ ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have a photo of the Massey, I'll post it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Love the dust trails hanging in the air Joe, the sunlight caught them a treat. Like the shot of the Axial Flow coming over the hill too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the shot of the Axial Flow coming over the hill too Thanks you guys, it was another quite profitable day, and they were mostly new machines to those that have been previously posted... I was quite chuffed at how some of them came out, especially the JD 1188; I did take others of the 9780 that had it almost completely obscured by dust! The Axial Flow sounded amazing, as I've probably said before, lovely throaty roar from its Cummins engine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 Thank you Its not been a bad season, there are still a few fields left to be cut, including a few not too far out of town; a trailer was sitting in one of them as I came back earlier so I'll go and see if anything is working later, though won't be surprised if not after the rain last night - but you never know! Want to get to rednal as well and catch the Fortschritt E517 and see whats happening with the Volvo S950 - I'd love to get photos of that working!

CX820Joe Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 A trailer sitting in an un-cut wheat field aroused my suspicions on the bus home earlier, so at about 6pm off I went and lo and behold the field was half cut by these two: Then I moved on and saw this JD 7920 pulling up a field (not sure what the implement was exactly \): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 Then I moved onto a village called Leaton and saw this scene, reminiscent of something Chris L or Malcy P might have posted from East Anglia: Green Valtra carting: More of 480: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 There was also a JD carting: The other Lexion was a 580 Terra Trac with V900 header: My attempt at an artistic shot with a Cardiff bound train zooming past the combine (shame about the tree) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 A few more It really was getting gloomy by this time, not that its all the obvious from the photos, so lights on: One more of the 480: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should no this but i have forgoten. Where abouts are you? :) I know, there's plenty still to be done...am in Shrewsbury, Shropshire - most of these pics in the thread taken between here and Ellesmere, I really ought to broaden my horizons! There doesn't seem to be that much in the way of beans/peas though, so once wheat is in it'll be combine famine for next nine or ten months :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewHolland2 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 More nice finds Joe, definitely be 2-3 days before we get cutting again up here thanks to the rain we've had in the past few days........ I think the shot with the train came out well........ :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 There are a couple of fields I was half expecting to see the CX820 cut...well they were being done this evening, but not by the CX However, what was working was just as good, still a New Holland, but a TX65: I sat myself on a Tree stump expecting the combine to go around the small field...but next thing I knew.... Note the duals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 So then it turned a little and cleared the bit around the gate... Then it was off into the neighbouring field... To unload into a trailer behind a NH up the field And that was it for the night. Met a Land Rover towing a red header when I got back into Ellesmere, and following was a Y reg Laverda M152 (it is in this thread somewhere), but I wasn't prepared enough to get a pic, and it was pretty dark. It didn't half sound good though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britainsnut Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I think they always look slightly strange with the newer graphics and a more modern look on what i always see as an old machine if you see what i mean \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 Aye, your not wrong Jamie, it was nice to catch this one though, I've seen it when whizzing past on the bus for a while now but it was the first time I've caught it on film Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
