Popular Post Broadoak Posted March 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 3, 2021 Although most of the items of motive power on the farm are powered by i/c engines this little Porter is the exception that proves the rule. She is used only rarely during harvest time when things are really busy on the farm. The photo is by Chris Nevard. Peter M 20 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Broadoak Posted March 3, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 3, 2021 A general view of the yard showing a Fordson E1A tractor being serviced in the foreground with a Fordson Standard behind it. Coming into the yard is an Opel rail truck, it is gas powered made from either wood or coal. She is started on petrol but changed over to gas once the engine is warm. A useful method of getting rid of rubbish on the farm. Photo by Chris Nevard. Peter M 26 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broadoak Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Two more examples of the unusual forms of motive power used on the farm. In the foreground is the yard foreman’s jeep which he uses to take urgently needed spares or tools out to the fields that are being cultivated. The yellow rail truck is based on a GMC six wheel truck, in my imagination it is powered by a Gardener four cylinder diesel that drives a small generator to power the traction motors. The four wheel bogies are useful as the wagons themselves don’t have brakes. It has an electric winch at the back which is useful for pulling tractors or implements out if the get stuck in the heavy clay.

The cows are actually re-painted Jerseys made by Britains. The cow pat is a blob of solder painted greenish brown.
