I had every intention of attending this event, but circumstances conspired against me. Thanks for pictures, shame the Long Shop roller never made it. Any reason given?

Some great kit there - many thanks for sharing the pics
:) |

My reason for asking is that I have one, pretty much identical to that, and it would be useful to me to know who owns this one for reference purposes. Thanks in advance. |
The machine on the right in the photo above is a 1908 clover huller, Garrett works no. 12302, supplied to agents G Thurlow of Stowmarket. (From the show catalogue.) It is indeed part of the Long Shop collection.
Bill. |
That's great, thanks Bill. At least now I know where there is another, in case I need to make reference to a second machine. I was beginning to think that mine (no.15602) was the only one left..!
Now all I need to find is a threshing machine (like the one on the left) to go with it... :) |
Here's a few of my pictures to add to Ian's excellent collection.

Lovely to see the Joker back out. I remember watching it ploughing many years ago. Must be at least 20 years since it was last out.
