@@nicholashood1486 Considering North America is massive, covering 24,709,000 square kilometres whereas Britain is an island covering 209,331 square kilometres I'd expect the trains in North America to be a tad larger than those in Britain. There's also the issue in Britain that most of the rail freight travels on the same lines as the passenger trains of which there are a lot so having a freight train that's a couple of kilometres long and travelling at a speed that's half of most passenger trains is going to cause congestion issues.
Glad you have a good stand of Winter wheat to show us. Just hope it yields well for you next ☀️ summer😊 Well done for the " Public information bit" about mobile phones. My nephew got done for it at traffic lights by a police man in a Huge Sign Covered Police van that drew up next to him. They said if he didn't see them coming what else was he not seeing. Painful 6points on his licence.
Earlier this year a tractor with trailer went past us at a junction on his phone, we pulled out just around the next corner there’s the tractor and trailer on there side full load of grass over the road.
Over the years, I have needed hearing aids in the ends and in the ear type purchased Non NHS and mine have Bluetooth, so I can answer the phone through my hearing aids by pressing a button on the right sided one. they are not cheap but around £2500 plus a pair, but at least I can hear again better, and use Bluetooth. They can talk to each other through my head to get the best programed performance, as I was informed when I purchased them about 2 years ago. Hearing loss was shooting and noisey early Q cab with a radio turned up full, and no ear protection in my youthful days. I have been watching you from a drive from UK to Majorca, and just got home from a 2000 mile plus drive wiuth my dog through France. Worth every bit of the journey, and thanks again for your videos.
Hi Olly, 75% today, it's still raining here in N.Y. You have to consider all the variables when comparing tyres, a low pressure tyre doesn't necessarily increase pulling power but will most likely reduce ground pressure in normal conditions. Maybe 🤔😅 Interesting comparison though, well worth testing.
I'm from a farm, now mainly deliver and work a rural area. I see young farmers on their phones on calls and texting all the time. And not just on tractors, also just driving pick ups and land rovers. I spot the odd builder, but mainly young farmers i'm affraid.
Ive seen a few police stings near us a few under cover milling about at the side of the road! And then boom your pulled in! Nice biscuits and nice autro!👍👍
Just keep an eye out for a DAF tractor unit, white and on a 70 plate the police are using. Been in the Bournemouth area recently. Between the lorry and undercover coppers. Fair few drivers have been caught. I.e phones, no license or insurance and drink/drug driving . The lorry was used to look down on the drivers using phones. 👍
Yet another good update Olly, your wheat look good . Lets hope we get a decent Autumn & Winter so the crops don't suffer from flooding like last Autumn & Winter. 75% Today .
Loved the tug of war Exciting afternoon. I’m going to pick up my limited edition hoodie. Sad though. The Canadian government hammered me with a 25% surcharge. Going to be a great day just the same.
I thought Tractor pulling had started again both equally matchedYour wheat looks fantastic Hopefully it’s going to be a much. Better harvest than this year the yield will be loads better hopefully I do like your new. Fendts they/ look very impressive Feeling 90% today and Olly another brilliant video
With every job on farm your thought should be on safety, especially on the roads around public. A split second lapse today meant I had my hand somewhere it shouldn’t have been and got my finger crushed between two gates, now have a chipped bone and my finger nicely strapped up for a few days/weeks 🤦♂️
Loving the outro's Olly. Great tractors means any time for a photo op the better. You're going to have a hard time only picking x12 shots for the 2025 calendar. SFI and wheat crops looking good. Ivan is very responsive to Rob = good training 75%
A class 66 has 3200hp. Also, just put your mobile phone in the glove box or armrest (somewhere out of reach) and don't be tempted to pick it up. Even using it with bluetooth has been shown to be a huge distraction. Just don't use your phone whilst driving FULL STOP
105% but not out so no news other than weather grey with occasional showers. Tractors in a "pulling race". 🤣 Plod did notice they were on private land?
Quick question regarding SFI, if you have some land but you are not farmers but you are in business. Can you get a grant to create a wild flower meadow? Asking for a friend, well boss actually.
Some power in them tractors. Wheat looks class. What do you do with the sfi mix. Rob letting a roar and Ivan lol, he was quick to turn and come back though
Tug of war I’d like to see is the new class 600 odd hp four track against an equivalent quad trac for bragging rights. Mr Wardy Waffle is liking the claas recently. Like to see its turning circle compared to a quad trac as well.
The police incident was on the 5300 slip road. Closed off with 3 police cars and two cars and a stretcher between the cars. I was passing at about 6.00
Earbuds are good . Simple tap on the side answers a call. Pull over and stop to make a call as that can be distracting possibly an illegal act. Eyes are off the road even on large tap display in a car. Hey siri good idea on iPhone or car voice recognition system.
They’ve got 2 out put shafts and motors driving front wheels and back wheels no four wheel drive switch they just sort them selves out it one wheel slips it engages another. Bit likes modern 4x4 trucks.
@dorsetfendtfarmer720 I knew that there wasn't a 4wd button I was under the impression that they just engaged as and when the computer thought it needed it
@@oliverelliott4453 putting the transmission under that much pressure from a standing start computer probably said no to the back wheels for a second or two. Robs just gripped and held its own.
It’s bad enough driving while you’re on the phone but in a tractor you are so very visible. Sadly there may be some youthful arrogance but it’s never acceptable or excusable. It’s also not a very good PR action in the eyes of the general public? Thanks for trying to advise them of the error of their ways
That tractor pull off proves nothing ever as it never leaves a clear winner its for fools and children's amusement only not to mention you could end up with mechanical damage
@@oliverelliott4453 so like I said Ollie pointless exercise. I’m sure you’ve worked enough ground to see that it changes in no time at all concrete doesn’t it’s a standard with a few yards where soil isn’t. Or am I too old to work the relevance out.
That's a Class 66 diesel-electric loco which is 3,200 hp which equates to around 2.480 hp at the rails.
Looking forward to class 99 which outputs 8,050 hp on electric overhead and 2,150 hp diesel. Pulls with 500 KN (110,000 lb) 😃
Some of the trains over here in North America are over 2 miles long, with 6 engines at 5000hp each

Olly saw an interview from Telford United about the flooding and he was wearing one of your hoodies.
Evening olly a great video as always, and the fields look great.

Hello Olly I totally agree about the phone it pisses me off seeing people driving texting or phone calls they are putting peoples lives at risk 👍👍
Hope the winter wheat yields a bumper crop next year, for all growers.
Loved the tug of war
Exciting afternoon. I’m going to pick up my limited edition hoodie. Sad though. The Canadian government hammered me with a 25% surcharge. Going to be a great day just the same.
Those tractors are so impressive, need to get the 2 728’s fully weighted on a field vs the quad 😂😂
Winter wheat looks really good Olly. I'd say it's lifted your % mark today. 👍👍👍
Another great video olly. 75% today. Hopefully get back to work again soon which will sort me out mentally hopefully as I hate sitting at home ill

Loving the outro's Olly. Great tractors means any time for a photo op the better. You're going to have a hard time only picking x12 shots for the 2025 calendar. SFI and wheat crops looking good. Ivan is very responsive to Rob = good training 75%
Great video Olly, tractor pulling with a difference. 👍.
Another great video Olly but to be honest is that bird cover not a waste of good land for crop production.
Good video 👍 85% crops don't look too bad.
Great video Olly as always 👍👍
I thought you'd stopped ploughing on your farm lol
Geoff
Where the green 728 have you still got it. Haven’t Said if you brought it ?
You have a good crop because of the horsch MT serious machine.
That tractor pull was just like a typical British summer! A flop.
A class 66 has 3200hp.
Also, just put your mobile phone in the glove box or armrest (somewhere out of reach) and don't be tempted to pick it up. Even using it with bluetooth has been shown to be a huge distraction. Just don't use your phone whilst driving FULL STOP

To answer you question Ollie , the class 66 is weying at 130T and has 3000 hp at the wheels
@@FRY202 I think that's the continental version of the Class 66 that has 3,000 hp at the rails. The British version has 2,480 hp at the rails.
Hi Olly how many acres have u got sow for wheat for harvest 25
The missing row of sfi will give partridges a run down the field lol.. 😅
That’s what it’s for 😉
What model air pods are you on Ollie ? They do seem very clear ?
Keep the good work up
14:04 great content again
Why is the wheat drilled so far apart? You could get another row between each one.
Nice to have the time and MONEY to play
Nice video olly you can tell which tractor Morgan is in just by the orange light 😂
85%today
I thought that
I think some trains can be around 3,500 to 4,000 hp some serus power
When u say that sfi was broadcast on do u mean onto the stubble or a standing crop?
Hello!
Totally agree about tractor drivers on mobile phones should be punished heavily along with car and lorry drivers
Have you tried pulling the valtra with a 728?
Wheat looking promising......This time next year Rodney. 80%

@@andygif290368 who uses lbf? It's got 409 kN when starting 👍🏻
ollie im 70 percent today hows you
That would be inconclusive then
On the 3rd time how did the front wheels on robs tractor move before the rear wheels 🤔

Olly you could make a bit of money if you do a TikTok and promote some headphones
Go on the tramlines for harder ground and less digging
That one is 3300 hp

Pointless exercise Ollie
@@donaldtriumph1682 how is it when vf tyres are a very expensive extra on a tractor
@@oliverelliott4453 would of been better suited on concrete to see if the extra surface area of the lower pressure tyre actually gave more grip ?
