- This footage shows what is either a Geo. Henderson & Co. demo event of various agricultural machinery, or has been suggested an RHASS event, possibly a ploughing match.
Their are two red tractors, a Massey Ferguson 65 and 35, and the machine with the revolving table and workers on it is a Massey Ferguson 711 Potato Harvester.
I'm not sure of the location, however the Geo. Henderson sign around the front of the tractor is advertising the offices in Edinburgh and North Berwick, so I wonder if the event location is somewhere in East Lothian?
Please leave any additional comments and information in the RUclips comments below.
This cine footage is from the personal archive of T.S Henderson, formerly of George Henderson & Co, Kelso.
It has been digitally restored by his grandson.

For those who may be interested, that device at 5-18, is called Multi-Pull, the forerunner to Pressure Control, on MF tractors.
Great to watch that MF 65 with a five furrow plough. Although it is working in 'soft' arable land, you can almost see the weight transfer taking place from the plough, adding additional wieght and hence traction to the tractor rear wheels. The geometry of the rear linkage is such, that if imaginary lines were to be projected forward, the intersection of said lines would be the centre of the front axle. This had two benefits; in the horizontal plane, the implement always tracks centrally behind the tractor whilst in the vertical plane, the force generated through the top link, keeps the front of the tractor firmly planted on the ground.
This ensures safe and controlled steering, and also prevents the tractor from rearing up, if an obstruction is encountered.
Marvellous invention, the Ferguson System !
