  • 10/05/2024 Westgate, IA. A windy day to fly the drone but still worked out for some farm action! The John Deere combine and Case tractor were some efficient looking machines! Readlyn, IA. Caught some soybean harvest action just West of the corn harvest views. 10/04/2024 Waterloo, IA. The Iowa Northern was making it's way across Northern Waterloo on it's way to B yard and on to the CN Waterloo Sub.

    Thanks for the video, Red! I love seeing the harvest action and the paint scheme on the Iowa Northern locomotives! Except for all of the extra traffic and trucks parked on the wrong side of the road, this is one of my favorite times of the year! I've never seen inside a conbine hopper before, so that was cool 😎! A super video today, my friend, and I thank you for it! Have a great weekend, and we'll chat again. 😃😃😃😃😃❤❤❤❤❤

    Hello Red, a great video about harvesting with a combine and transporting the corn away. A lot of grain goes into such a big truck, and the work is also gentle on the soil, as both machines, the tractor and the combine, run on rubber tracks. Very nice drone footage. The freight train of the Iowa Northern Railway is very beautiful. Thanks for sharing and many greetings from Germany to IOWA. Wolfgang

    Yeah red the tractor and the combine are linked together by GPS. They don’t even have to steer them. They put them on automatic steer and the machines steer their self through the fields but anyway, another awesome video my friend and you stay safe out there and watch your back and we’ll see you on the next one.

    I greatly appreciate the photos of the Harvest. This is technically the reward for all the toil and troubles and how well the weather was for several months. Did it make it through the onslaught of weeds and bugs and how is the market holding up? Usually every year new equipment to go faster and bigger capacity. It would have been most interesting to have an aerial say 1949 and just see what the equipment size would look like. Can you imagine all the colors and sizes that would have had Minneapolis Moline. Oliver. Allis Chalmers. Massey Ferguson. J I Case in addition to the usual John Deere and International Farmall then all the groups of small carts going to each Town elevator where the 40 ft boxcars await their loads. Nice to get one more Iowa Northern Train which even had some new fertilizer cars. I believe that was a new area you were shooting in and sure has that industrial feeling. Funny how your train is headed to the B-yard and the scrap yard has that railroad sounding name A-Lìne. Nothing like having a back Cloud driver!

      @paulbergen9114 You're welcome Paul! Sounds like the market is soft. I talked to a friend that helps out farming some. Sounds like it costs about $4 a bushel to plant and the market price is right around $4 a bushel. Break even at best. Yes the variety in the old days would've been interesting. Roads had to have been plugged with tractors and wagons during harvest!

      @@redsiowatrainvideos6645 yes they were I'd ride with my dad into Illinois on his sales territory and teachers convention was during Harvest Time. All kinds of trucks and old tractors with small trailers hooked together. Just think during WW2 how many tractors set due to lack of fuel or parts and the horses were pulling the equipment. I'm old enough to still remember signs lugs not permitted on roadway. Some were still out there they didn't even have tires! Watched The Firm report Saturday night Anna Market was Break Even or maybe up to 25 cents a bushel on corn and not all that much different on soybeans. Some sad pictures of complete losses on the cotton crop in Georgia in major losses at some chicken farms

    I watch a lot of YT farmers and not sure about CaseHI but if you pay enough the tractors and harvesters can all "talk" to each other/ share track lines, I even watched Millennial Farmer control the speed of the cart tractor from the seat of the harvester while unloading on the go !!! I watch Trippy Farmer watch the info screens of the harvester from the seat of the cart tractor/ even made suggestions to hi Dad in the combine (after checking the ground behind the harvester for corn being lost) to make adjustments to retain more of the crop so yea smart farming is here but still needs maintained by people :)

    Thank you, Red, for taking us to corn and soybean harvest locations. It is always interesting to watch the harvest of both crops. It is amazing to watch the combines cut the plants and then "magically" fill a bin on top of the combine with corn or soybeans. I enjoyed watching the Iowa Northern train wander through B Yard to get to the Canadian National's mainline to get back to Iowa Northern's trackage at Cedar Junction.

    With the right software, the grain cart tractor can pair with the combine's speed. If equipped, autosteer is combine only.
    The grain cart display is weight in pounds.

    16 rows of 250-300 bu.acre corn fills that gain tank quickly. 40 some feet of 60-100 bu. acre beans, not so much.
    Looks like they've got a corn reel to help pick up downed cornstocks.They sold a lot of them after that Derachio went through.
    The computers in the combine and grain cart can be linked, depending on the systems their using. Thus, it can be especially helpful when running more than one combine. The graincart operator can go to the combine that's fullest.
    I didn't see much cab corn!😂
    That's the weight, weight,weight! oops, never mind.😁

    The grain wears wavy patterns into those screw augers, like on a gravel road with washboard type ruts that go across the road which get deeper and deeper as time passes. Eventually they wear out.

    where/how does the corn get from silo into train Hoppers?
    what if they built side track and farm truck unloaded directly into Hoppers?
    Remember: "fly cautiously"
