All tractors seen in picture are 1939 or 40 R's. Z's had exhaust in center of hood and longer gas tank. Notice no fenders and no electrics.
 
Has anyone else noticed all those steering wheels with what appears to be rubber covered spokes? I have only seen a couple steering wheels like that on "R"s over the years.
 
That looks like the NE corner of the old Mpls. tractor plant---the rail line would have been and still is a little north of the tractors and is where the tractors were put after they were off the line. The building across the street is / was still there about 4 years ago when I went by.
