:D Hi Jim, thanks for your comments, considering her age she does fine! when i first got her gave her a good service etc, few other jobs. The tracks are about tuckered so not too many harsh turns. Not far from me there is a real nice agricultural version, ag version has 4 bottom rollers drott has 5. The winch is a Boughton 404N max pull 17450 lbs.


Cheers John :rockon:

Interesting Craig.
looks like from the fowler Marshall era, as stand says fowler on half the sign and the the machine looks like as TM 55 ? or similar. Do you know when the photo is from ? The grill looks like a Challenger one to me.

Did Bucyrus / Ruston or Blaw Knox do Front loader Gear to fit them like they built bulldozer gear ?

Thanks Farmer Nick,
Looks like a handy old girl .Just wondering what year this machine was made,& if it shares undercarriage with a MF200?

Jim
