If any city folks every wonder what farmers do on a day off,well you go look at more farm stuff! Even us retired farmers do the same thing. It’s truly is a farmer thing. Thanks for taking us along.
Nice to see the 2 love birds together. I remember growing up on the farm years ago we had an old John Deere. The kind that the front wheels are side by side. My dad was cutting hay I think on a slight hill,and the whole assembly of the front wheels broke off and it spun around and start going down Hill till the front end dug in stopping it. I am 63 now and might have been 4 at the most. That sight has always stuck in my mind luckily no injuries.
I managed to snap the torque tube on a 1948 Alice Chalmers B when I tagged a stump in the woods. It just slumped down and pulled the trans shaft out of the clutch, Engine was still running as the nose fall over on it's side. Towed it home on a trailer, found a new shaft and welded the tube back together with a stiffener on each side and had it back in the woods the following weekend.
I’ve worked on a township mowing tractor one time and the guy caught a telephone pole with the boom and it broke the transmission in half but luckily since the tractor was a mower it a big frame run along the side to keep it together
Interesting for sure. Loved the road trip video. Nice to see the better half in the vid. Two kids playing in the junkyard. It don't get any better than that. Take care. 😎👍👌
It is interesting to see how hot some of the fires were based on what all melted and to what degree. Seeing the glass fuse back together means sustained Temps near/above 1400ish f, for a minimum of about 20 minutes.
1400 degrees isn’t even that hot. If you have a blower you can get wood in your backyard fire pit to burn at 2000. The fact that it can sustain that temperature for long enough to melt glass is what impresses me.
Farming, Fixing and Fabricating had one burn up a couple of years ago and he caught quite a bit of it on camera. It's amazing how quickly they can go up in flames.
OLF had one burn years ago. Ron Pratt (YT heavy towing guy) has a video where he is removing a burnt combine from a field with 2 heavy duty tow trucks and a flatbed.
had a neighbor use the snot out of a stacker in the 90s. if you wanna see a nice tractor graveyard, wisconsin tractor parts near black creek is pretty large.
I've seen vids of tractors split at the bell housing before, especially if they had a lot of time with a short frame loader, but that's the first I've seen split the transmission housing.
I guess this is the year of tractor fires. This year my great grandpas old Ford burned up but we were able to get it running and fixed up. It’s crazy how fast bad things can happen.
I was one that was driving the new holland that split in half. lost control on a downhill and jackknifed the tank and tractor. And yes the tank was full of sand that settled out of the manure
I've seen all brands catch on fire. It seems to be getting more common, but there is more and more electrical on all of them. Seen 2 JD combines burn up in the same field on the same day last fall.
equipment in nice rows on an equipment dealer's lot like that (like that White Planter) are typically for sale going to or fresh from an auction, or from trade-in
Thank you Ryan that was interesting yeah it's not good to see tractors like that but yeah at least you know how what happens me and my girlfriend used to do that a lot well thanks once again my friend that's a good one for sure have a great day you and your better half God bless🙏🚜
Back in the late 80s my parents lost their farrowing barn to a fire. Lost around 150 sows and piglets happen at night. I guess you could hear the pigs from miles away but our dogs at our house never even barked, just remember waking up to bunch on neighbor ladies in tbe house. We lost pretty much all of our planting and hay equipment too.
Perhaps one day someone from the tractor graveyard would walk with you explaining what happened to some of their derelict tractors and implements. That would be very interesting. Thanks Ryan for all you do...You are 4+.
11:18 mark i think that is a case ih unit with that corner post display like that ran a 275 caseih for 4 maybe 5 years lovd that thing it was on tall rubber and made auger cart a dream to run could load tall or short traileers very nice
Ah the old Stackhands... those were an interesting, low cost way to put up hay, but they didn't seem to stick around very long. Doesn't make a very dense stack compared to bales, and hard to move and feed out. Later! OL J R :)
I have heard from a mechanic in one winter they where working on the backend of a tractor, and have the backwheels pulled off. Before the put the wheels back on, one off the workers start the tracktor up and was running throgh the gears to make sure it all was okay. Somehow he hit the brakepedal and the tractor flew into the wall and the tractor was a total loss.
Dont know why the guy was clutching those 8000 series are funk gearbox which dont need to be clutched except to start if I remember right from our old 30 series
My brother worked for Eagle Tractor Salvage in Eagle Lake, TX for ten years... saw a lot in that time. This new stuff has WAY too much wiring and all that pollution garbage running red hot in a dusty environment with lots of straw, hay, grass, weeds, crop stubble, etc. is just a fire waiting to happen. Same with the new combines and stuff... why I prefer old school... less to go wrong, and less of that malarkey to just provide additional ignition points to start fires! Not like the old stuff never burned, but less places and ways to start fires... OL J R :)
Case ih have had the problem of cutting corners cost wise since 554 models days. Yet they have some great ideas.. all the companies need to rethink building to a minimum or cost standard when you see tractors breaking in half and so on
This was a surprise to see pop up. It sure was nice to see that you are still training your "INTERN"( loved that little dig you snuck in at the end regarding INTERNS, haha,) or should I say nice to see you and the future, Mrs. Kuster, out and about. Hope the two of you had a lovely day running the road to Dodgeville and that you at least stopped for ice cream before the two of you headed back to the farm. A lot of money sitting there burnt away sure hope that those farmers got compensated for their losses
There was a guy last year when I was on wheat harvest where a hydraulic hose on his Gleaner blew and blew oil all over the turbo on the engine and that was it. He made it out ok, don’t even think he needed to go to the hospital but it can happen.
With mentions of clutch problems when splitting - the clutch fails or is pushed in during low gear, the flywheel overspeeds and explodes, breaking the transmission casing? (I don't know, but that came to mind).
After seeing the burnt up tractors, it makes you wonder what if any safety testing / regulations they have to meet for farmer protection in the cab? Given how much they are burnt up, what could you possibly salvage from them instead of just junking them.
It happened to me on Father’s Day (June 20, 2021) 2019 John Deere 4052R cab tractor with 102 hours on it. Caught fire while I was using it. It’s on my channel if you want to watch how quick they burn.
Had a custom farming groups big tractor go up in flames last year I think it was. To much hay chaff on it and the chaff caught on fire took the whole tractor with it. Was a new holland tractor. Same group had the rear end come out from underneath a new holland T8 they had was pulling a fully loaded wagon on silage when it happened. Both incidents operators made it out ok only minor injuries from rear end coming out. When the tractor went up in flames I was not home but supposedly you could see smoke and flames from miles away. They just got a new tractor this year to replace one that burned. Both the tractors came from Hennessy.
Don't know if you guys have considered it Ryan but it wouldn't be a bad idea to install master shut off switches on your tractors to avoid electrical fires.
Here in Sth Island New Zealand birds help destroy a lotta machinery. Farmers now open up the bonnet after finishing up. Birds can build nest within 2 hours. It's funny watching them coming in n out flyin in with twine n straw etc with great determination.
Very interesting video was kool to see all that but at the same time u couldn't help but feel sad for the ppl who owned the tractors and I feel so bad for the farm that Hannah was talking about that ring on her finger fits her well good job Ryan
Glad to see Hannah in more videos you guys make a good team you both look happy
Nice to see young couples love the farm life.
What a lovely happy couple! It looks like she knows her stuff. Good on ya Ryan.
This is the first time I ever saw a woman have fun at a junkyard. Thanks for the video, I didn't know that was there.
It’s a unicorn
If any city folks every wonder what farmers do on a day off,well you go look at more farm stuff! Even us retired farmers do the same thing. It’s truly is a farmer thing. Thanks for taking us along.
Now that’s a split tractor, wow. Great to see you again Hannah. That’s a neat yard Ryan. 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
You two make a great couple and one hell of a team!
Thanks for the great video and information Ryan good to see you and Hannah out and about. Take care and have a great weekend 👍

good shot of the rock on Hannahs hand nice congratulations!!
Thanks Harry!
@@HowFarmsWork Could have bought a new tractor with what that thing cost.
Glad to see you two out together having fun.
Should do more videos like this. The adventures of Hannah and Ryan
All equipment should all have a master battery disconnect that should be turned off when not in operation.
Interesting for sure. Loved the road trip video.
Nice to see the better half in the vid.
Two kids playing in the junkyard. It don't get any better than that.
Take care. 😎👍👌
Good video cool that your wife got to talk she presents the information very well.

I was thinking that new holland slid out of control downhill and caught a tree like Farming Fixing & Fabricating's 8320
They only lost one side. That NH is a scary.
CNH stands for case new Holland same company. Man that scares you stay safe and be careful. Sure a a lot of NH I’m a green man. Keep farming
It's nice to see, because in this kind of place there can be good things.
Farming, Fixing and Fabricating had one burn up a couple of years ago and he caught quite a bit of it on camera. It's amazing how quickly they can go up in flames.
OLF had one burn years ago. Ron Pratt (YT heavy towing guy) has a video where he is removing a burnt combine from a field with 2 heavy duty tow trucks and a flatbed.
That was an interesting video.
Mike Mitchell had a video just after a combine started burning last summer. He then showed it being taken away in another vid.
My kinda Disney land 👍😉😁. Wow would love to take it all home but sure the wife would think not 🙄. Great vid from the both of you. Stay safe 🏴
Another great video Ryan! You guys keep doing what your doing! And stay safe!
Thanks Bryce!
had a neighbor use the snot out of a stacker in the 90s. if you wanna see a nice tractor graveyard, wisconsin tractor parts near black creek is pretty large.
Extra crispy! WOW! Hi Hannah.
Interesting video…thanks y’all 👍👏
Some of that stuff in that lot is stuff people bought at the auction that they didn't pick up so they move it from the main lot to that small lot
I've seen vids of tractors split at the bell housing before, especially if they had a lot of time with a short frame loader, but that's the first I've seen split the transmission housing.
Just a bit different. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the salvage yard tour. I love strolling through a salvage yard, If you go to another please be sure to take your camera!
I guess this is the year of tractor fires. This year my great grandpas old Ford burned up but we were able to get it running and fixed up. It’s crazy how fast bad things can happen.

Duane did u get hurt buddy
No I was completely fine
Yeah they are in Livingston
Ryan your video are cool to Wacth
Hey Ryan!! Hey Hannah!!
Hey Darrin!
The wheel drums are good for having a camp fire now
I've seen all brands catch on fire. It seems to be getting more common, but there is more and more electrical on all of them. Seen 2 JD combines burn up in the same field on the same day last fall.
Dusty environment and heat from regeneration for the exhaust equals bad day.
equipment in nice rows on an equipment dealer's lot like that (like that White Planter) are typically for sale going to or fresh from an auction, or from trade-in
I LIKE HANNA, SHE'S A GREAT HELPER (I'VE SEEN HER WORKING). CONGRATULATIONS.
hello hanna, nice to see you in this video. great video ryan
That 2nd to the last tractor looks like Case MX series like mx250 with the cab frame bent like they were designed for the MX cabs
one of our small ones, 2001 nh tc29 split in half on me with only 600 or so hrs on it. I got lucky to get off of it in a hurry.
That lot you were in next to Hennessy was at one time one of the largest New Idea dealer in the midwest.
Thank you Ryan that was interesting yeah it's not good to see tractors like that but yeah at least you know how what happens me and my girlfriend used to do that a lot well thanks once again my friend that's a good one for sure have a great day you and your better half God bless🙏🚜
Had a bird nest in my tractor, saw it when I got on it . now I check it before using it.
Back in the late 80s my parents lost their farrowing barn to a fire. Lost around 150 sows and piglets happen at night. I guess you could hear the pigs from miles away but our dogs at our house never even barked, just remember waking up to bunch on neighbor ladies in tbe house. We lost pretty much all of our planting and hay equipment too.
Do got to say sure a cool place and I alot of nice things worth buying.
Bout time Hannah graced us with her presence!
I love going grazing for equipment
great work
Perhaps one day someone from the tractor graveyard would walk with you explaining what happened to some of their derelict tractors and implements. That would be very interesting. Thanks Ryan for all you do...You are 4+.
DPF seems to me the biggest issue with heat and all its wiring. Hope the manufactors have some ideas for the future
Alot of case and New Holland combines are proudly built in Grand island Nebraska.
Great video Ryan sad to see some nice and fancy equipment goe like that hope the these people were ok thumbs up and shared
11:18 mark i think that is a case ih unit with that corner post display like that ran a 275 caseih for 4 maybe 5 years lovd that thing it was on tall rubber and made auger cart a dream to run could load tall or short traileers very nice
At 6:10 he was looking for the brown spot in the seat. What a ride.
That's a pretty interesting tour😉👍 when something like a fire happens, everything you can do is hope that nobody got hurt.
Nothing wrong with old tractors I got me a John Deere 1020.works great
That looked like a John deere by the back window shape and the long dropping bonnet
New Holland is my neighbor. Bout 30 minutes from me. My grandpa worked there years ago. He worked on balers not tractors, Retired early 90's.
It happens on dirt pans often I have seen quad tracks cats and Deere’s break under load
Ah the old Stackhands... those were an interesting, low cost way to put up hay, but they didn't seem to stick around very long. Doesn't make a very dense stack compared to bales, and hard to move and feed out. Later! OL J R :)
Can you imagine that? HEY VERN I CAN'T GET THAT LOAD OF DANG SAND TO YOU RIGHT NOW
I have heard from a mechanic in one winter they where working on the backend of a tractor, and have the backwheels pulled off. Before the put the wheels back on, one off the workers start the tracktor up and was running throgh the gears to make sure it all was okay. Somehow he hit the brakepedal and the tractor flew into the wall and the tractor was a total loss.
good job y'all keep up the good work
I believe that they use the equipment that is still sellable to help fill in the auction he’s my local dealer I drive by every day
The guy in that new holland will have had a shock to the spine when it landed for sure. Could have been caused by a casting defect or just abuse.
Dont know why the guy was clutching those 8000 series are funk gearbox which dont need to be clutched except to start if I remember right from our old 30 series

Not like the old stuff never burned, but less places and ways to start fires... OL J R :)
I think the big t9 came from Belmont and they had a tractor burn up about five months ago
maybe with all the electrical wiring on new tractor they should put fire suppression systems on them.
Case ih have had the problem of cutting corners cost wise since 554 models days. Yet they have some great ideas.. all the companies need to rethink building to a minimum or cost standard when you see tractors breaking in half and so on
One of my neighbours here in Finland had the back rim crack on a new Holland t7 while going 65 kph pulling 28 ton slurry wagon.
Road Trip.👍👍👍
This was a surprise to see pop up. It sure was nice to see that you are still training your "INTERN"( loved that little dig you snuck in at the end regarding INTERNS, haha,) or should I say nice to see you and the future, Mrs. Kuster, out and about.

A lot of money sitting there burnt away sure hope that those farmers got compensated for their losses
I don’t think she caught it at the time 😂
Wow amazing 🤩
Nice Sunday drive. just saying
Burned spreader or disc? Fire on the farm?
If you see Bill, ask him if he remembers selling my dad our 3010 back in 1961. We also bought a New Holland 66 baler from his dad, Leo.
Good video Ryan
What do the do with the broken equipment do they use it all for new equipment
There is a guy outside of Elkhorn Wisconsin that has about 100 acres of machinery graveyard.
Jeepers creepers crows in the background 😵🇬🇧😎
Good stuff Hannah and Ryan, Thank You for the tour, just goes to show how quickly fire takes over, real shame:( :):)
There was a guy last year when I was on wheat harvest where a hydraulic hose on his Gleaner blew and blew oil all over the turbo on the engine and that was it. He made it out ok, don’t even think he needed to go to the hospital but it can happen.
Your right chiefs pump manure for majestic farms.
That’s where I’ve seen them, I used to work at the Premier Coop down the road as an intern
With mentions of clutch problems when splitting - the clutch fails or is pushed in during low gear, the flywheel overspeeds and explodes, breaking the transmission casing? (I don't know, but that came to mind).
That New Holland looks like my neighbor's after he crossed the RR track without looking!

Another you tuber Anderson Cattle Co had his New Holland burn last year also
Don't know if you guys have considered it Ryan but it wouldn't be a bad idea to install master shut off switches on your tractors to avoid electrical fires.
Had a 4960 with a nest under the cab next to the exhaust and almost caught fire
Here in Sth Island New Zealand birds help destroy a lotta machinery.
Farmers now open up the bonnet after finishing up. Birds can build nest within 2 hours. It's funny watching them coming in n out flyin in with twine n straw etc with great determination.
Oh my goodness thats very scary great video keep them coming Ryan
That women loves you and the ring you gave her! Catch me if you can, be 42 years in a couple months!
These are stories and images of which nightmares are made of.
Very interesting video was kool to see all that but at the same time u couldn't help but feel sad for the ppl who owned the tractors and I feel so bad for the farm that Hannah was talking about that ring on her finger fits her well good job Ryan
