I've seen lots of 656 tractors, but nothing quite like this one. I looked at the Castle Harvester web site, they don't make any mention of it that I could find. Stay dry! Or wet, whatever's your pleasure. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lucey is the main boiler for the steam bldg. Not sure how close I can get to it for more pics but I'll give it a whirl. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,169 #18 Posted August 10, 2019 (edited) @pullstart Lucey is out of commission. Failed inspection last year. don't know what the plan is for it. They have a smaller boiler powering the steam bldg. Next project Mud running! Edited August 10, 2019 by squonk 2 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clueless 3,005 #19 Posted August 16, 2019 Mike, I showed some of the pic to Mikey the 704, he looked happy. Then he saw the bell, looked sad and turned and road away . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 9,981 #20 Posted August 18, 2019 Don't know how I missed this. Loved all the steam engines and that cabbage harvester had me puzzled as to what it was. Some contraption. Also all the other weird and wonderful exhibits. Many thanks for the photo's, Mike. Now I'm off to run through them again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
