Tractors

Following the current craze of posting photos of tractors (Martin, Gayle and Conrad), here is another one, moving this time, for AlanR

 I've cropped it since the lad driving did not look too happy about being photographed.

  1. Easy to spot. Its a David Brown model 30 C or D without its engine side covers. Although the photo doesn’t show that much detail to spot the specification. The C was petrol and the D was Diesel. Built around the mid ’50’s. The shape of the shell fenders and the filler cap at the centre of the nose gives it away. They changed colours not long after this to the more familiar White and red. Its still going strong though, although the sheep trailer is empty. I’m sure Mr Sloman will have other ideas though.
    Good to see another tractor blogger.

    2. Surely it's a Triumph 2000 Mk2 Auto IRS TCC prototype? Very rare, I imagine

    3. I'm not sure if you are trying to provoke Mr Raynor or are yet another tractor expert Martin!
