We have one of these at the Frank Hornby Heritage Centre in Maghull, Liverpool. It always creates great interest when it is taken to a talk by our Chairman Les French
Thank you John. You might be right. The prototype for the model could very well be a Lanz Bulldog, although it lacks the characteristic large flywheel. I myself have been considering that the model would represent an early Farmall tractor - from a time when steam engines were just being replaced by internal combustion engines. By the way, have you seen Fabian Kaufmann's video of his fantastic Meccano Lanz Bulldog: th-cam.com/video/4YE-RZEMOOc/w-d-xo.html ? You should definitely consider taking up Meccano on your work desk. It is a fun and relaxing hobby.
Prens Ege. Do you want a link to the instructions of the tractor? Here it is: www.meccanoindex.co.uk/Mmanuals/1928/Manuals/47-30-05-9.pdf The Instruction of the Clockwork Motor Tractor is on the page 125.

I loved metal Meccano when I was a boy
Great model
Like it, Mr John. The model reminds me very much of the then contemporary Lanz Bulldog tractor. Must get my Meccano out again soon.
