    Love the DB's. We had a 1210 when I was a kid in the '70s and early '80s and still have an 880.

      Different men around in those days that worked hard and got the job done, great to see the traditional style tractors in action.

      The Dexta was also a scraper tractor at this point hence the rough and ready look 👍

    The Brown were a great tractor on the PTO, MUCH BETTER than a similar HP ford

    Classic 😁 And we thought the pick up hitch was modern 👍.. I saw the last of the hay meadows and the village gang with home brew. Silage and mono farming ending most of our wild life. I do believe we could have mechanised high food and abundant wild life too with out greed and toxic 🌍 #buzzofftoxic

    D.B. 1210 on the forager to belt the horsepower down the shaft , & get the fine gear ratio,s & a little dexta scurrying about with silage trailers , a little tractor like this tipping up possibly 3 1/2 tons of silage & doing it safely , same unstoppable spirit as an M.F. 135 , if I drove a tractor like these around here now I would be stopped on blues & 2,s & arrested in about 10 minutes , when undesirable others can make threats to kill & get off with nothing much said ; why would I get arrested ? NO LIGHTS , OR NO. PLATES ON THE TRACTORS ! This apparently matters far more than threatening to kill somebody , Britain , ( I refuse to call it great ) won 2 world wars , then completely lost the plot . Emigrate like my old dad wanted to . For the sentimentalists out there , all the machines you see in this were made HERE ! Unbelievable now . Ford tractors , made in Basildon , Essex , David Brown tractor , made in Meltham , near Huddersfield , South Yorkshire , Bamfords forager , made in Uttoxeter , Staffs , Weeks trailer , made in Hessle , North Humberside ,I have been in 2 of these factories , Ford,s & David Brown,s while they were running , now all but the "Ford " plant shut , & that plant now owned & ran by a division of Fiat , ( New Holland ) . Your wonderful post - industrial britain , you can keep it .
