Another excellent video of a vintage rally for Sunday night viewing. Seeing the cut away tractor reminded me of the one that was on the Ford tractors stand at the 1985 Smithfield show when they launched the Force 2 range of tractors to the market, it was a Ford 6610 4 wheel drive cut away with the all new super Q cab if I remember correctly. Then I saw a cut away Ford Force 3000 somewhere that had been motorised with an electric motor which turned it over slowly and let you see everything working in slow motion as if it was running. It was very interesting to see what lives beneath all the castings that we can't see normally in the engine, gearbox and backend. I just can't remember where I saw the motorised cut away though.
Great video as always. Thank you. The Standen Solobeet Cyclone seen briefly in the background would be worth a look. I though most had all long since been scrapped.
Great video. Nice collection of tractors. The Massey Fergusons are my favourite, but I like all the brands just as well. Saw one of those Allis Chalmers ED45 here in PEI once. And I saw an Ontario plate on the video too. Thanks a lot for your time to make the videos and posting them. Have a great day.
Excellent coverage of a really wide selection of tractors 👌 the diesel tractor that ran on vaporised diesel was an interesting item would really like to know how that worked 🤔
Today I had an earworm of a song running through my head and I finally figured out where I heard it. it was " Come with Us" by Nat Keefe from you tube music library that I last heard in your video. I have used the same song in the same way in a couple of my own videos. I wonder if anyone else gets these songs stuck in their heads?
DB produced a narrow track version of the 2D for vineyards, under 1m wide. It was for export but some did get sold in the UK. I suspect that is what we are looking at but I didn't see the owner to ask.
It’s my old Allis in the middle. I’m friends with the guy who ran the section and he allowed me to put it in the middle so she wasn’t alone on the rally field somewhere
Great film, but the Akroyd Hornsby is NOT compression ignition, the fuel is squirted into the vaporiser chamber whilst air is admitted to the cylinder on the intake stroke . The fuel is vaporised by the residual heat but cannot ignite as the vaporiser is still charged with exhaust gases and the fuel-no oxygen. The piston moves to the upper limit of its stroke, which ISN’T the top of the cylinder, (there’s the big port in the cylinder that connects to the valve chest at the side ) at approximately the limit of the stroke some air moves into the vaporiser meeting the fuel and causing spontaneous ignition, the pressure rises and displaces a reasonable amount of fuel into the cylinder, burning in the bulk of the air and the power stroke commences. For a more comprehensive explanation just google ‘ Herbert Akroyd Stuart patent’
I've just googled this as you suggest and stumbled over this web page thehistorypress.co.uk/article/its-an-akroyd-not-a-diesel/ It's well worth a read.
that 1ST tractor 🚜 😊 must be older than the diesel engine because they were 1ST made in 1893 😊😊 and later diesel engines had a pony motor on them 2 start them. IVE seen them rope start or W a hand crank U start on gas and change them over 2 diesel and cut the pony motor off then it's on diesel power 😊😊 OMG 6 18 2O24
That's a good point. The engine is older than the tractor. Wikipedia reads a follows. - "The Hornsby-Akroyd oil engine, named after its inventor Herbert Akroyd Stuart and the manufacturer Richard Hornsby & Sons, was the first successful design of an internal combustion engine using heavy oil as a fuel. It was the first to use a separate vapourising combustion chamber and is the forerunner of all hot-bulb engines, which are considered predecessors of the similar Diesel engine, developed a few years later."
I expect the mystery Allis did thier usual trick of cutting out for no good reason and refusing to start until the crowd of spectators had dissipated!!!!

Beau reportage 👍 Super vidéo! 👌 Merci 🤩
Thanks.
Another excellent video. Really enjoyed all the tractors. Thank you for the time and effort you put into all your videos.
Thank you very much!
loved your presentation .. thank you so much
Thanks.

Hopefully the cutaway Ford's you remember have also survived.
You cannot beat a tractor show with lots of fordson s and grey Ferguson's but a great collection of other makes ! Great video looked a great show !
Thanks 👍
Great video as always. Thank you. The Standen Solobeet Cyclone seen briefly in the background would be worth a look. I though most had all long since been scrapped.
The sugar beet vide will be next Sunday. There are a lot of interesting machines as well as the Cyclone.
Great show and presentation
Thank you😊😊😮😮
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks.
Very enjoyable vid. I'm glad that cutaway tractor has survived and you managed to get good film of it.
Thanks.

Glad you liked it.
Glad you got my 770 on the move at the end I was on my way to top it up with diesel for the 34 miles home to Norfolk
Quite a long trip at that time of day. Well done.
@@Casterton-Vintage 2 and half but it did it
Excellent video again!
Thanks again!
Great video!
Thanks 👍
that rusty thing is a dwoile flonker. made in east angula they were used in the dwoile fields to flonker samples of the crop.
Thanks. I'll pass on the info 🙃
.@@Casterton-VintageI think Raymondo162 is pulling your leg ol'sport.Would be intresting to find out what it really is and how it was used. .
Very nice.
Thank you.

David Brown. Like a 2D but not quite a 2D? I was there but missed this completely. What is it?
Saw that as well and wondered exactly the same 😅
DB produced a narrow track version of the 2D for vineyards, under 1m wide. It was for export but some did get sold in the UK. I suspect that is what we are looking at but I didn't see the owner to ask.
It’s my old Allis in the middle. I’m friends with the guy who ran the section and he allowed me to put it in the middle so she wasn’t alone on the rally field somewhere
Very nice too. Thanks for explaining the location. I thought there might be something special going on that I didn't know about.😊
@@Casterton-Vintage hopefully there shall be next year a special display of Allis Chalmers tractors
What happened to the working video
Good question! I would appear that some of the tractor drivers were younger than they should have been so I have hidden it.
@@Casterton-Vintage bit like me
@@Casterton-Vintage but what I don’t get is that if we were allowed to do it why won’t RUclips let it be up
@@Casterton-Vintage fair
@@Casterton-Vintagethe working weekend on the last day of August and first day of September is at Hall farm, Fincham, PE33 9DQ hope to see you there
but to add to my last comment the show looked poor on crowds....was it
I don't know numbers but the wet weather must have kept people away.
