third party image

Hi guys;
Saw this old guy this morning whilst travelling round the area. Another scene that was once common and now a rarity.
The tractor is a late 1960's Massey Ferguson 135 diesel fitted with the last remnants of a ROPS cab made by Lambourne - there would have been a green pvc top & sides, with glass windscreen & doors. During the late 1960's & early 1970's 1 tractor in every 4 sold in England was an MF 135.

The baler is a Bamfords which was made in England (possibly a Jones Balers of North Wales design).
Bamfords started making horse drawn implements, gas engines & barn machines, at one time the largest (?) manufacturer of farm machinery in England.
Cheers David

What kind of hat is that old timer wearing?

Thanks for the photos! Nice set up he has. Looks like a scene from anywhere here in SE Nebraska - except that the guy in the background is driving on the wrong side of the road. 8^)

Hi David; Always good to see your photos. Had a chance to see a little of England while in the Military, and spent 2 weeks in London with the family as a tourist. Question, do you have to license the tractors? I noticed the plate on the 35 shown above.
p.s. Some of your photos really remind me of the scenery in All Creatures Great and Small. Thanks for sharing, Bob
