The following article appeared in a recent Financial Times supplement in the UK. For Sandstone Heritage Trust it highlights the fact that we actually have a very impressive and a very wide ranging collection of vintage tractors which are seldom seen in operation. This is due more to a manpower issue than as a result of a lack of willingness to put them through their paces. In fact, we have been looking for a vintage and classic tractor mechanic for years who might be interested in acting as the caretaker of our collection.

Nonetheless, we will continue to deploy them if and when we can. Rail enthusiasts can expect to find our tractor collection much more in evidence along our Narrow Gauge railway during photographic safaris.

We will shortly start a feature which will highlight the characteristics of other more interesting tractors in our collection.
