Tractor Fest is the UK’s largest vintage tractor & engine show. Each year the show attracts over 1,600 exhibits as well as in excess of 12,000 visitors. Join us and take a look at some of the exhibits.
It never gets old looking & learning about these old tractors & implements they used back in the day. Funny thing we may have to fall back on these machines. And most of the ppl that know how to operate them might not be around anymore.
If we have to fall back on these then is big troubles. They were fuel hungry and if things get that difficult then there won't be enough fuel. I am of an age that used these tractors and some of the older machines.
They are good fun to play with but modern tractors make work much easier. The biggest problem with going back to smaller machine would be the lack of people willing to drive them.
Great video. Lots of nice tractors. The cub cadet international garden tractor was build between 1963/65. 7 hp Kohler engine. Garden tractors is my hobby.
@@Casterton-Vintage I owned a 2wd years ago as a loader tractor, with the agri-matic shuttle box it was 40+ years ahead of everything else out there at the time.
I recall whenever my father had to use the PTO-mounted pulley drive to work the dairy's vacuum pump or the big bench saw for cutting firewood, he'd set the belt in a figure 8 rather than straight out and back.
Most of the usual PTO mounted belt drive attachments could be bolted on with the pulley either to the right or left for different rotation. But if say you needed to face it 1 particular way for space around the tractor considerations, then the ease of just flipping the belt for reverse was certainly a boon. Helped make up for the pain of always adding beltstick and fixing worn out belt joiners! 😉😊
Too much equipment there to do justice to everything and, as you say, too hot! I try to get the Fergie's when I can. I think there is at least one or two in the next video.
@@Casterton-Vintage cheers there was so much stuff there I never saw that grey Ferguson excavator. I took a Farmall B450 and the living van to the very left of the walls working area.
