Thank you sir, you guys have some waaaaay too cool of iron over there. Half or more of these have never made it to the USA. Just what is the cool little blue gizmo in the first crawler post?
Thanks for the input. I've just a vague recollection of the name now that its been identified. Probably still no chance of ever seeing one in person. Thank you again sir.
Was that crane truck an International. I know a guy whose got a mid 50's international back hoe truck that looks similar. You guys got lots of neat equipment down there. I've always wanted one of them ransom crawlers.
The truck with the Crane mounted on it was aB61 Mack . It was a very popular outfit back then .
If you look a little closer at the photo with the tractors on the sled , there is actually 5 tractors pulling the sled .Basicly breaks every rule in the vintage tractor pull rulebook,but boys will be boys .
Ian, thanks for posting these photos. You beat me to it! I took about 200 photos on the Saturday so will go through them to see if there are any others of interest. Only went as a spectator this time.

Ford County 1164 4WD.
View of the LH steering with the drive to this wheel taken from the rear axle housing. RH steering & drive the same. Go anywhere but need 10 acres to turn around
New Holland self propelled baler. Very uncommon here.
Fordson E27N with a Sunshine pto drive combine. Note that the driver is stationed on the combine. These combines were originally ground driven from the LH wheel and originally could be pulled with a team of horses
Great Photos John .Only one thing . I would have thought the owner of a Cat D4-6U would get the Cat D4 numbering system for Cat D4s right . But I will forgive you .LOL
