Some Cat ploughing action. Came across an NVTEC working day at Fincham whilst biking around West Norfolk today.
A D7 of 1950's or early 60"s and the agricultural versions of the D4 or 6 ploughing on land. One with 3 point hitch and the others using trailed toolbar carriers. All using Dowdswell ploughs.

Always suprised that Ferguson developed the 3 point hitch before Ford

Hugely underappreciated tractor. I hope someone saves them.

A M.A.N. and an MF135 spotted on yesterday's ride. I never seen a M.A.N. tractor before. Seems to be typical of the the single cylinder diesel design common in places like Germany and Poland back in the day.
