Annoying "chapter breaks" I'm gone

Ironic that they helped win the war and then would eventually sell out to Deutz, a German company in 1985 and become Deutz-Allis

I gotta say, while I liked the vidope and the story, the little animation between chapters became irritating and repetitive.

Now they sellout to China corporations 🤦

My late grandfather used to work at Allis Chalmers I believe he retired from that place as an inspector. You forgot that our communist government had a role play in the 80s to about plants closing, as they wanted to have some of our manufacturing things go across the big pond and let the fourth world countries do work. Not caring about all the billions of people they put in unemployment line.

Raked a lot of hay with a WD-45 as a kid.

Holt knew nothing about earth moving until RJ lotoni went to the southern end of California to a place called Stockton in the orange belt a very good read about the tornado is mover of men and mountains if you could ever get hold of the book it is a gem of earthmoving throughout America add would leave caterpillar in the dust

Love the video

You are the best of the best when it comes to these videos. Hope you consider do one about fendt and new holland. Fendt really need one 🙏

This video is full of sh*t.

Title of video should be "How I lied about Caterpillar "

We still have Allis roller mills in our mill, some of them over 100 years old

excellent content 🎉!👍

Nothing worse than capitalist propaganda.

It must be noted that every caterpillar crawler tractor that came off the line in Peoria during ww2 came equipped with a RG Leterneau dozer blade, sheep’s foot packer, crane, power controll unit which functioned the earth scrapers and dumpers that le turneau built in there peroria plant. There were a few years that the two companies worked very closely until the end of the war. A book worth reading is called the Le Terneau Legend. A great read

Very good video and quite informative.

Dam junk motors sound like hell no good

We've had many Allis Chalmers forklifts, the latest, an alleged 2002, purchased just 2 weeks ago. Runs great. We had some equipment in the old Allis Chalmers Montreal plant in Lachine, Quebec. Still has twin 50 ton overhead cranes on one runway. We used one to load a 63,000 lb. Heyligenstaedt lathe bound for Germany

Well done!

Allis Chalmers also made steering gear for ships. I was exploring a decommissioned railroad carferry in Michigan. Diesel-electric, it had A-C steering gear.

they should sponsor you at this point

Cool story. Still love seeing them ol orange tractors in the field.💪

How about the employees? A company is nothing more than what it's employees make it.

Friend of mine down the road has a Bucyrus Erie 10-B drag line with a Chevy in line 6, it was a runner some years ago, all in all it could pretty easily be working again.

Spent much of my life running Allis Chalmers tractors starting with two WD45 tractors used on our family farm. Later replaced by D series Allis Chalmers D17 and D19s. The WD45s are gone as well as the crawler we had but still have a collection left, B, C, D17, D19s both gas and turbo diesel and a newly aquired 210 turbo diesel. All still being used although for smaller work.

Visit the John Deer Museum in linois. Amazing 😊

Thank you, your research. Is appreciated. ❤

The giant dc motors that powered tge cold rolling mills at Alcoa Davenport works were allis chalmers motors

Erie Pennsylvania is where I live

In the 80's there was Deutz Allis and Fiat Allis. Lots of mergers were going on during a sluggish economy .

I used to design and build equipment for AC, also while working at the company i worked for i found out that AC also made Ship engines these are Giant engines with doors in the blocks that you can walk through to do inspection (engine not running of course) they were a marvelous Company. one of my favorite tractors was the WD45 we had on the farm. Used to ride that thing all over the country, we used it about every year to pull the hayride wagon. Great memories. My uncle and little brother both worked for AC at one time in Springfield Illinois. That plant is completely gone now.

I had a 190xt, ran very strong and very dependable. Pulled a 4 bottom plow, and a 7 shank chisel plow through a lot of ground. Loved that tractor.

I have a 1950 Allis Chalmers CA

Bucyrus-Erie's operation for a long time was closed to the public as far as tours went. Prior to 2010 they built a visitor's office and started to conduct tours of the facility. I was on one of the first of those tours conducted by some of the highest ranking official at the plant. As we entered the plant there was a huge bull gear presented as a display. I asked the Plant Manager that was running clean up at the back of the tour if we would see that manufacturing process along our visit. I was told "no". About 2/3rd of they way on the tour, he stepped over and signaled me to follow him. He took me to the largest shaver/shaper possibly in existence. There it was, cutting the gear faces on a twelve foot diameter blank wheel. The operator stepped down to tell me this was a multiple day job to cut that gear. Instead of moving the gear in the tool, the tool was mounted to the gear and was reattached after cutting three teeth. Huge machine. The other thing that has stuck was the plate welding operation. Two men were pre-heating the area to be welded as another man did the actual weld. This was on sheet steel that looked to be six inches thick. The ends were cut at an angle and he was filling the void as he welded. Obviously a high skilled work force in this operation.

Look up the definition of 'shallow'.

Kazakhstan so how other Governments here since decades or centuries. Who is original Kazakh ?🤳?

We had WD45s and D17s. growing up. GREAT TRACTORS

Through my grandfather's eyes, I saw farming transition from horses to tractors. His first tractor was a C, followed by a WD and then WD 45. I used that WD 45 for 5 years when I rented the farm in 1977. Naturally, always had a soft spot for AC. Was sad to witness the decline.

I grew up on Allis-Chalmers. Granddad bought the first WD45 in about 54. In about 55 Dad bought a WD45 diesel. Then we moved on to D17s. Dad got his in the fall and we used it to grind ear corn for cattle all winter and Granddad got his in the spring. Turned out that the two tractors were one serial number apart, tho. We passed on the D19 and Dad waited for the 190 and it had a serial number ending in 0003. Then in about 69 I bought a 190XT. Later I owned a 200 and then a 210. Like I said I spent a lotta years with Allis-Chalmers. Never owned a Gleaner, tho. Their idea of a combine and mine never lined up. Funny that they don’t mention the extremely innovative Allis-Chalmers fuel cell tractor in the piece.

I self slap cat is king!!!!

Icy roads in the Pacific?

AC products were junk in the 1970's.

Dragline excavator is the very first non combat mech that humans invented. A machine that is capable of walking almost similar to modern day robots...

Love watching this kind of video

Showing the British Red Coats while citing the Civil War is not at all accurate.

My Dad was an engineer in Allis's Steam Turbine department. He passed away in1966 before the collapse and bankruptcy. We lived just a few blocks away from the main office building on 70th street in West Allis. My Dad walked to work and back home every day.
