Found a tractor in the weeds and the name on it is MRS. Anybody know anything about this, it has some kind of diesel engine in it but the weeds were so thick i cound'nt see to good, gonna go back and look closer. No remotes are three point hitch, just a draw bar, has open cab on it. I've never heard of one just wondering if anybody had any info on them. Thanks Ken.

There's been an MRS A-90 tractor up here in NW ND for about 30 years. Don't know where it came from, but it's on its third owner. It looks like an ordinary 4-wheel drive farm tractor. It has axle steering(like the Case 4-wheelers) and a Cummins engine. The current owner doesn't farm with it, but he has a V-plow on it for snow removal.

RJ is right on wit hte MRS Mississippi Road service tractors. They made drawbar tractors for pulling Pans and botto dumps and also made pand and bottom dumps for others. Most used straight shift truck trandsmissions like Fuller's and Eaton.I have a friend that own a 4 wheel drive and steer rig. Most had a ball joint on the rear of the tractor to hook a cylinder from the front of the pan or belly dump to the tractor in poor ttraction pressure to the cylinder made the trailer push down on the drive wheels. Ive seen a few 2 wd and 4 wheeldrive tractors they made. I wished i had one to restore since they are from my home state.

it is a multi fuel german rig. R.S. is the designation for 'riddenschlippin' the diesel is fired with a single shotless .410 cartridge. most of them had upper cylinder damage. i'll bet this one needs a rebuild too. good tractor if you don't mind the start up racket.

Sounds like a tractor for the lady of the house/farm! Although there are a lot of single girls who own tractors.

Betty Cooper might own a tractor but Veronica Lodge wouldn't be caught dead near one.
