I’m a Pomme and I worked in NSW in 1984 and 1985. I drove a KT450 on a farm near Coonamble for a few weeks. The owner had a 650 Bud near Dubbo but it had chewed up its transmission. This video brings back great memories.
The K-19 Cummins is possibly the best road train, triple trailer engine thats ever been used in Australia. From the KT-450 in the 1980's to the KTA-600 that came later.
Wow unbelievable my father can remember this exact tractor and I believe 2 other big buds pulling large plows in NSW and he also remembered a tug of war between this tractor and a d8 dozer
Hugh_Magoo yes that sounds very correct my father could not believe his eyes when I showed him the video he was very surprised it still ran as well as it did
Awesome video. Quick question why has the tractor got what looks to be like a generator just outside the cab door at 0:48 seconds? What it’s purpose? And this thing has the coolest looking lights I have seen on any Big Bud.
Great sowing rig, how much rain have you guys had? What are you sowing canola? Here in Nth East Vic we are sowing rye then canola be next week. Anzac weekend is usually start of sowing season.
It's my mates it's an absolute beauty! I farm in North Central Vic and we have had 50ml in the last 7 days and 90 ml last month in one hit. Sown clover and Kitty hawk wheat already, gearing up for canola soon. Much the same start date

Better late than never! But yes that a generator, it was running the fan heater in the cab because it was bloody cold ahaha
