Sorry I Didnt realise it was only on 'loan' to the museum, Id got the impression it had been donated from an article some time ago.
IIRC Ray had a section on its rescue from a flooded pit on his engines web site as well.
I must come across and get some new photos at the museum as the ones i took a few years ago on an open day have gone awol & I wanted to add an exhibit list to its page on tractor wiki & to wikipedia's rather short article.
