Title: Half Century Of Progress
Post by: muddy on August 27, 2019, 07:58:10 PM

The later half of last week I went with some friends to the Half Century Of Progress show in Rantoul Illinois.

It's a display and demonstration of antique and vintage farm equipment.

Took fair amount of pictures so here is the album....

Pretty cool Tim! -- For an Ag guy, this was probably "as good as it gets".

I went in '17 and plan on going back in '21. Its a very neat show. Plenty of youtube videos to if any one wants to see this old stuff in action.

Thanks for posting the pics. I see some big HP engines in some of those tractors.
