45 year old ford tractors ,will they make it to Scotland and back?ferry with parents!-epic nvtrr2023

[@davetaylor4741]

Now old tractors. But seems like yesterday to me. Grew up with dairy from the 60's to the end of the 70's. Then left farming. So the tractors from that era are what I was used to. What an amazing run. Stunning scenery. Credit to the organisers. Would be a lovely event to be part of. Enjoyed that. Thank you.

Thanks for another amazing video

[@McNeillWelding]

Beautiful countryside thanks for sharing

[@ruthbees7214]

What a great trip. Nice to see your family and friends all enjoying themselves. Doesn't get any better then that you all work hard during the week. Time out now and again is needed by all of us in a busy world. You have the same interests as us I am into tractors and stationary engines and old plant. We have a vintage club in bridgend south Wales the glamorgan iron horse. Thanks mark and Ruth 😁

[@allistairc123]

Hi folks, we done this trip to Wales border knighton 2018, it was really enjoyable!

[@paulcooper2897]

An hour of tractors and traveling? Sign me up! Great video! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

[@djmips]

Super video - enjoyed seeing the voyage and a slice of life! (13:56 your ferries have the same alarm curse that ours do. That's a solvable problem - come on car manufacturers - fix this! )

[@bigfred0997]

I use to paint all the stena ferry's down in deep water in the shop yard and loved everyday of it

[@kevinbaird9763]

Great video Allistair. Beautiful country, would love to visit some day. Some of my ancestors are from just north of there, Ayr and Largs. Thanks for bringing us along.

[@dallasbaiton371]

Thanks for the insight into some of your fundraising and outings This Easter weekend.👍

[@AdamVance-xk5xy]

Great video of the run, I was also there taking part. shame the weather wasn’t as good on Sunday as it was on Monday. 354 tractors took part I’m sure 👍

[@robertthornton7553]

Excellent show.

[@karldickinson2799]

Wicked video mate it's tractor heaven

[@richardcusick6148]

Glad you like my auld Same's Very good video

[@allistairc123]

Cheers bai! Was good weekends fun!

[@ianmcintyre5023]

Hello Allistair, thank you for a very interesting video, a could feel the comradery your input to the video, Thank you,

[@bcbloc02]

Awesome! Really enjoyed the scenery! Amazing how the countryside is so little built up over there. Here they put a house in every 5 acres they can find along a road.

[@martyn450f3]

Great video Allistair. I think I would have done the run on one of the 3000 series Massey's but that dark green Valtra probably be my first choice.

[@kevinmartin9432]

Excellent video!

[@trevormcburney948]

Great Video Allistair. T

[@AlistairMcrystal]

[@iainbrims3297]

Muir Hill top of the tree for me, my father used to have a 121 great to see them, been looking for one for ages they are like hen's teeth to find a half decent one.

[@nippinkoi8924]

Great adventure 👍👍

[@geraintjones495]

Excellent video

[@allistairc123]

Cheers stranger

[@mikeroutledge6929]

Love your 9700

[@bonzer101]

Great video Allistair. I last saw Ailsa Craig in 1952 as a 8-year-old. I was on a day tour from Ayr on an old Paddle Steamer. I cannot find any info on what boat it may have been. I live in Australia now with little chance of returning to visit Ireland or Scotland, due to my age. Also, none of my ancestors from Scotland survive. Thank you for another great video.

[@thomasdavies1150]

Fantastic video my choice would be the same v4 used to have one great tractor. Keep up the good work 👏

[@dallasbaiton371]

The only one who will panic is that gal Greta , anyone who else loves to see that bit of smoke and sound when accelerating in a tractor . We are old school and enjoy seeing you all having some fun . 👍

[@millarcontracts]

The Tractor of thr day for me was CAM engineering's 8550 valtra followed closely by the Marshall 100 and the 1250

[@allistairc123]

Good weekend, I'm still wrecked lok

[@kiwibigt6684]

You are dead right with that column shift. Biggest mistake Ford made. Guys around here were desperate to buy their old 5000 and 6000 back after a few months of the column shift. I've still got a cabless manual 5000 and never tire of driving it. Awesome vid!!!

[@Rickwardful]

Your Mum’s MH is my favourite.

[@jankotze1959]

That was very cool

[@trevormason1732]

Would be good to see the fordson e27n start , but mite need a lot moor work to get it runing.

[@phil6465]

It’s called the Agnew Monument.

[@horstszibulski19]

So you went off with 8 tractors and returned home with 4? Did you lost or sold some while underway? 😂 Great trip! Was your crew the only one with the Muir-Hill models? Thx for taking us with you! 👍👍👍

[@allistairc123]

2 went home early that night and 3 more early that morning

[@rodneywallace2178]

Alistair did any of them Muir Hill's come from Maxwell's quarry. Mind driving one back in the 80s at the Ballymena plant.

[@allistairc123]

Not sure Rodney!

[@millarcontracts]

[@davidt898]

[@philstewart9891]

Field Marchell..fergy tvo..

[@dallasbaiton371]

You do know that if she ever needs a wheel chair it’s going to be four wheel drive 🤔😂🤣 when she gets into her twilight years .

[@markfiges999]

But do your tractors WANT to go to Scotland?

[@liamrobertson7265]

[@phitsf5475]
