    The replica Case 150 steam traction engine originally designed in 1904, has pulled a 44 bottom plow. It produces 150 horses power at 300 rpm, has two forward gears, is 2wd, capable of pulling 50 tons up a 10 percent grade and will climb a 40 percent grade unloaded. The flywheel weights 1400 pounds and the two drive wheels wheels each weighed over 6,400 pounds. Great grandpa had extremely powerful machines too.

      @@jamesbarbour8400 the guy running the bigbud 747 does not have enough experience to keep the front furrow wheel of the plow in the furrow,, when all tractor tires are "on land" That is called an "on land " plow "in furrow" plows you run one side of the tractor tires in the furrow, in furrow plows require very little time to learn to run, on land plows it usually takes a good couple of 8hr days to learn your proper tractor/furrow wheel placement without the need to even look at where the furrow wheel is.

Far too big for the UK roads and anything much over an 8 or so furrow plough I don't think has ever been used over here.

    Great footage and narrative... Thank You!! The Big Bud 650/50 is powered by a 12V92, which - like the 12V53 and the big 12V149, is Not a "true V12 - and is of modular construction utilizing 2 - 6V92's mated together with full redundancies except for the one governor (unless they were DDEC's), and they do Not sound like a V12 at all due to the fact that they are, siamesed V6's with their redundant V6 firing orders.
    The only "true" V12 from DD was the Series 71 - V12 which was "clean-sheeted" from the beginning as a V12 and utilizing two different V12 firing orders, depending on the configuration (left or right hand rotation, primarily.. but Not always) and application..... just some FYI trivia for you.
    PS; I did not "copy" this info from "wikipedia" or anywhere else.
    I have a 4 year degree in Diesel Engine Design & Theory, specializing in 2 cycle.... which was a required prerequisite to Research & Development (aka, R&D), along with a minimum 3 year degree in Mechanical Engineering (ME).
    This was from the mid-1960s and I, personally.. studied under and was tutored & "sponsored" (two summers at one of DD's training centers) by P. Nicholas who had not only just retired from R&D at GM Diesel (aka, Detroit Diesel), but was also one of the leading design engineers of the very first 2 cycle GM Diesel (a 4-71) prototype.
    I have a framed black & white 8x10" photo taken in 1937, just moments after the initial fire-up, with himself, "Boss" (Charles) Kettering and one other R&D engineer, whom I've forgotten his name at the moment, standing by the engine on the Dyno... that he gifted to me, after my return home after my last "tour" in VN. in late 1970.

      As for the power, especially the torque output.... 99% of what you read on the internet, regarding that subject... is nothing short of 100% Ignorance.

    Very interesting to see an old DMI plow in use. I worked at DMI for two years while attending Illinois State.
    You mentioned Bill Dietrich. It wasn't until a large chunk of steel fell on his foot that steel toed shoes were required.
    Bill only had one big toe after that mishap.
    Ahh, loved the fork truck races on second shift !!

    I was in grade school when this plow was built, DMI was just up the road. I got in trouble watching them run this in the field across the road.

      I seem to remember they introduced it at Farm Progress? Pulled by 3 Stieger cougar front ends hitched in a Triangle to make a 750+ hp prototype tractor.

    Big Bud Tractors. For a long time, the world's largest such farm equipment, built in a small (~12,000 population) town in northern Montana.

    This is less impressive when you think that a one cylinder steam tractor designed in the twenties pulled double the amount of plows

    Cool vid, the plows and the smaller bud are my cousin's now. I have never been around to see them run in person though.

    Brilliant film, very interesting, I take it the ploughs are too big to reverse, to turn over and go back.

    • @ClassicTrucker

      Not many ploughs like that in Ohio.
      That turn over. All you have to do is plough different.

    Pulling super heavy DMIs too. That's a heavy pull. Not much moldboard plowimg anymore, these tools are only used by the old guys. Having you ever tried maneuvering a 12 bottom DMI on head lands? It is a pain and waste of time. Plus you will use a bunch of fuel usimg these things, not to mention dreaded plow pan left in the subsoil which requires deep rippling after here in the high clay Red River Valley. And if you got rocks like we did, you will break stuff, sprimgs or not.

    If I may add a small correction - Steiger Tiger Tractors (Series III), had either 450 or later, 470 hp, depending on the model year, rather than the 600hp figure you mention.
