I work at a county museum. We have 54 acres (most of it is a flooded woods- but we have many nice outbuildings here at the old county home/ poor farm). A number of years ago at "Earth Camp" the Sherrif's county fair trolly was parked here. I hooked it up to our BN and used it to haul trolly full of kids around our grounds- at about 2 mph in first or second gear. Now that I personally own an H (knowing just as little about tractors as then) my question is this: In hind sight, should I have hooked the trolly up to one of our restored H's instead? What gear for super slow speed hauling? I might have to haul kids again at "Earth Camp" this summer and don't want to ruin our little BN now that I know how to start, operate, and generally safely drive the larger H. Your help is greatly appreciated. Signed- Not Too Mechanically Inclined Mike at the Museum.
