Been tractor shopping, may have found a winner

"Small" traction engine by comparison, but it's a cool pull to watch.

They are fun to watch.

This kid's YouTube channel is a wormhole I didn't need to go down today.

For something a little different, here is a Reeves & Co. 40-140. Reeves & Co. was based in Columbus, Indiana

FYI - the Reeves had an advantage in that it's two-story design allowed the engineer (driver) better visibility than most other similar types of tractors.

If you want to be filled with awe check out "Great Dorset Steam Fair"

I'm seriously looking to add a 35 - 50 hp tractor to my tool collection. Looked at a variety of brands and have learned that in the compact tractor category, they almost all are made by the same company and are branded for the label you like most (JD, RK, MF, NH, etc).

But I found a unique brand tonight while surfing. Looks awesome, think I'll check into it. Just need to find out where to get a loader....

I swear I just passed this on a flatbed. It was going westbound on old 24 just east of Logansport.

It was for sale on Craigslist. I hope it went to a good home.

Oh if I were a rich man...cool old tractors would be one of the things I'd collect.
