- Group of friends here all with vintage tractors, who come together to make hay in the fields of their club. Thanks to all of them for the invitation to film that together.
Filmed in Cumbria, England.
NB Some people wish to know more details of location. I cannot do this because I always assure farmers of anonymity, and they are happy with this. Without it, some would turn me away, to your loss as well as mine!
Lovely collection, real credit to them 👏 👌
Yes they are!
Great video. Nice Massey tractors
Yes they are - lovely to see!
Fantastic love those MF and there sounds proper tractor's 👍👍
Yes they are!!
Good to see the old baler in action.
So it is!
Amazing to see this . Lovely to hear the sounds of the machines doing their work.
Some happy cattle I'm sure with that green hay.
Many thanks - the beasts will be delighted!
Its good to see old iron still working away in the fields, thanks Alan....
You bet!
I knew there would be more of that 185, fantastic stuff. I see it's got the flexi roll down back. Might not look like much but it made a hell of a difference to us at the time when you had driving rain from behind you. Only downside was we had to start using the doors to get in as we never did on the old 168 as we would leap in through the back with a foot jump from the pto cover! Yes we were a lot younger,fitter,slimmer and stronger back then! I see the 550 is on an S plate as was our first 565, Dad was so impressed we also had a 575 the following year on a T plate then another on a V plate, then we went to a pair of 675's together on Y plates. We used to contract on a farm at Hams Hall, the farmers son was one of the designers at Banner Lane, he was always round with his notebook to see what we thought of this and that and whether we had any problems or suggestions. Your videos are sometimes just as much a memory trip as well as pleasant entertainment.
Thanks for that - what a store of Massey Memories you must have! Yes, pto cover was how I accessed the Nuffield when "doing the gates".
Brilliant video, I sure love the Ferguson system, 👍
Me too! Thanks Stevie!
Very nice again Alan
Many thanks Dennis!
Just looking back on your haymaking videos Alan. This definitely one of my favourites and reminds me of stacking flat-8s with a little Massey
Thanks David. Y es, I wish I could see more of that!
Super video, them MF 185s must be some tractor.
Yes they are
Great video Alan, really nice to see these old tractors at work. Greets Stefan
Yes, thanks, it is always good to see the oldies a-going!
Great video of Classic haymaking Alan, not long enough though .
Yes it was - average view length is less than 2 minutes! So if you like it you wait for the next one in the series! (O r ask nicely for the next one to be loaded soon!!)
Class video, brings back great memories although we didn't have the grab that's on the Massey, we had to use pitch forks
We, too. single for normal bales but "two-on" of they were very heavy!
Old school farming 👍
Indeed. "The old ones are the best ones"
Great!
Thanks.
A celebration of Ferguson
Yes!! Great innit!
