NEW PLOWING RECORD - 150 Case pulling 60' of plows!!

Watch the 150 Case Road Locomotive walking down the field in the driest, hardest plowing conditions we have had with 50 John Deere plows. There were areas where the plows wouldn't go in deep enough to pull smooth, but rather bulldozed a 60' swath. Over 80,000 lbs of direct pull on the hitch to drag this load across the field, a remarkable showing of the power of steam!
Thank you to the entire team of volunteers who made this happen. See where we're headed next at www.150case.com!

Awesome, I love watching those steam engines work. I grew up on a dairy farm and loved to see the ground being ploughed. When I got older a was able to do that work too. Really miss it!

[@davidwayneprins]

Awesome seeing it in action. Still in awe this machine is a century younger than one would assume. Hopefully someday you bring it to a steam show in Michigan

[@duncansgardengarage3473]

It is great to see so many people turn out for this!

[@CharlesTrains99]

Kory, Thanks for sharing. An amazing video !

[@calebmattix391]

Never doubted that it could do it, still awesome too see!!

[@The_Smith]

can tell you are proud of the job you did building that thing, as you well should be.

[@brianmeek5236]

What a great sense of accomplishment you must get, from bringing this from paper to this

[@chuckdortenzio5352]

Kory, can you do a point of view on fueling and operating the 150? That would be an awesome video!

[@lucmarchand617]

I hope case head office must proud what this tractor did.the power on this over 100 years was still big think.the evolution of farm equipment come long way.thank kory about work done.😊

[@josecarrillo5647]

Awesome footage! thanks for sharing.

She just pulls, so cool to watch

Mankind runs on combustion. Fire and water, look at the work that's being done.

[@peterrudenko4496]

This engine... Just look at the PURE TORQUE! There may be not very much power in HP but PURE FUCKING TORQUE! Also it is doing some nice beats)

[@Mart77]

About 5000 lb/ft of it

[@robinverbridge4900]

Something like THAT could come in handy!

[@karlbonhoeffer8069]

Espectacular!!!!

[@udflyer98]

Some beautiful stack music under load

[@linkerthejedi2575]

For someone who doesn’t know much about farming what dose 60’ bottom plow mean exactly

[@N4JAB]

Idk why but stack music gets my blood pumping

[@user-lr9xw3jz3l]

My favorite

[@billjoat]

That looks just fine but it looks as though it would pull many more. Just how many will it pull?

[@deercreekmechanical]

It’d be interesting to see how many bottoms it could pull before it lost traction. Also, how big are the bottoms?

[@whippyboy6272]

14 inches

[@claytonsmoking]

Im curious have you ever made/atempted to design a snall unit for modern useage? Like a 40hp tractorthat one person could operate that runs of charcoal or wood?

[@baileydombroskie3046]

Some of the smaller case steam engines still exist and also some have been made by these kinds of folk in modern time too using the original blueprints. There's a vid of Kory testing out the claims the case company had made of it back when it was 1st made. Case did not exaggerate the sheer power this beast has.

[@MikeyB_1972]

So what happened? They must have run out of plows or something?

[@engenhariapoluidora]

❤️❤️❤️🇵🇹👏👏👏

[@aulcamedia]

Only in America. Where else in the world could this happen? Without miles of fencing and police attendance. Long live the land of the free.

[@waynesteinmacher9794]

whod win a tug of war that or a m4 sherman tank?

[@boostbeast8731]

Just goes to show you that weight is more important than hp when it comes to tractors.

[@24681359David]

How come they didn't sink them down very deep? Looks like they were just scraping the surface to me.

[@bcbloc02]

Cuz pulling 50 12” bottoms 6” deep gets the record pulling 50 20” bottoms 12” deep stops it dead in its tracks. It’s just a show but still an impressive one even if it isn’t maxed.

[@24681359David]

@@bcbloc02 Exactly. It's not impressive at all to me.

[@bcbloc02]

@@24681359David I am still impressed they built that thing from scratch themselves though. That is a major accomplishment In itself!

[@braybraymaster77]

@@24681359David The reason they didn't put them in far is because the ground out there at the time was way too hard to put the plough in any deeper.

[@24681359David]

@@bcbloc02 It absolutely is!

[@RCOverKill]

It would look great to see it run over a bunch of cars lined up.
