Popular Post Airehead Posted August 13, 2022 Popular Post Share #1 Posted August 13, 2022 It was a little confusing because it was not all steam and not all tractors. It was a little overwhelming which left me dizzy. There were also two flea markets. One was for stuff and the other for farm parts. Saw this one early on. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airehead Posted August 13, 2022 Author Share #2 Posted August 13, 2022 Some had multiple seats. This was confusing because despite the license plate it is not a deer 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched a farmer put coal in the steam engine. Others ran on kerosene. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airehead Posted August 13, 2022 Author Share #9 Posted August 13, 2022 The parade was about 259 tractors. It felt a little long to me. This was something cool I saw. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffJim Posted August 13, 2022 Share #13 Posted August 13, 2022 What town was it in? Obviously somewhere in Western/Central NY, because of the blue skies and puffy little clouds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital_photog ★ Posted August 13, 2022 Share #17 Posted August 13, 2022 Lagrange Steam and Gas show was yesterday and today. The last couple years I haven't been there. Used to always be there. Rock the Quarry Triathlon is now the same weekend so I have been busy. I hate to tell them I won't continue to run the bike part of it. Then after setup yesterday and after the race today I had 40 acres of hay to bale. Last year had the same problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groupw Posted August 13, 2022 Share #19 Posted August 13, 2022 The Nebraska State Fair has an antique tractor display. Very similar and they have a parade through the grounds most days. Several old flywheel motors on stands. Last year there was even a grown up pedal tractor! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted August 13, 2022 Share #21 Posted August 13, 2022 This sounds like a wonderful day! But I might have left after the 200th tractor. Or at least gone to get some refreshments. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlecan ★ Posted August 13, 2022 Share #22 Posted August 13, 2022 I have not been to an antique tractor show in years but I do find them interesting. There is one nearby every year so I should make an effort to go see it 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital_photog ★ Posted August 15, 2022 Share #31 Posted August 15, 2022 If you want to see one of the largest and best shows go to the National Threshers Association Reunion and show. My grandfather was one of the founders of that show. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
