Saw a tractor parade out towards Roodhouse, IL (w/ pics)

Was out with my WD and the finish mower cutting around the field and saw a row of tractors and flags coming up from the bottom. So I stopped and got out my camera and watched them come by. Here's a few shots I took:

Judging by the lead and chase vehicles and the wagon the first one was pulling, I'd say it was the Prairie Land Heritage Museum crew out of Jacksonville, IL (where they hold the Steam Show every September).

Everybody waved as I sat there at the edge of the field watching them go by from the seat of my WD. There were quite a few tractors (30 or 40, perhaps?), but I only managed to get pictures of a few of them as they drove by. The little B was bringing up the rear.
 
thanks for sharing, that AC in 4th pic really brings back memories for me. First tractor I learned on. Was a 48 if I remember correctly.
 
Thanks for sharing! I think the last one is a C or super C and
not a B. All the other color fans will love the photo because the red
one is getting towed home, LOL.
 
Is that a cooler or one of them new light weight PTO powered mini refridgerators strategically relocated from a New Holland?

Lets just say that Super C has been across the corn field a lot more times then the Ford. It has a lot of gray hair and us old folks need help once in a while.
 
How fun!

We have had tractor parades come past our place.
Also seem to have a large group of old cars go by
once every summer too.
 
It was nice; I haven't seen a tractor parade in quite some time. I think a few of them were waving me to bring my WD out on the road and follow them, haha.

They had two vehicles with them, which was neat. Minivans with yellow caution lights. Just happened to time it well; as a few minutes earlier or later, I was on the back side of the field and would've missed the whole show!
