Hauled all six back today at once. Looks neat I think. [Reply]   [No Email]

The most I have ever hauled would be two loaded gravity wagons, two loaded hay wagons or just the baler and a loaded hay wagon. Keep posting pics, I really enjoyed viewing them. [Reply]  [No Email]

I saw an International and a JD that looked alot like those two, hauling silage wagons a couple weeks back. They were staging at the same place we were parking out our construction equipment. Off of 17c. [Reply]  [No Email]

Couple years ago a fella was bringing 3 wagons in to the elevator - he was combining corn next to the elevator, and didn't have to take public road, the 3 wagons and tractor _just_ fit on the semi scale. These were the 600 bu wahons, he got real close to the 120,000 scale limit. Neat pics. --->Paul [Reply]  [No Email]

I was pulling 3 behind the 1086 for six miles the last few days to finish and fill a bin. I thought it was 1 behind a truck and up to 4 behind a large tractor? [Reply]  [No Email]

Two year later the same bear stopped me for exceeding the SMV speed limit while pulling two gravity wagons loaded with ear corn I was told that with a SMV sign on a wagon was 25 MPH not the 45 that i was doing With the oliver 88 with a 67 Ford 390 4 bbl and he also said something about the exhaust being to loud from the headers with no mufflers. I thought it sounded really great pulling the hills . Some people have no sense of humor. [Reply]  [No Email]
