Hi Randy, my good friend Peter is spot on. In the late 1950s DB was having problems with the 900 models but the 950s were still in the pipeline as they had not perfected the Implematic hydraulic system with depth control. So to fill the gap in 1958 the introduced the T&U series with the old 900 hydraulics. The tractors are easley recnised by the lack of the deeper bonnet over the fuel tank and we have a few in preservation here in the UK. Last Sunday I had to go to Holmfirth to collect a kitten with the wife so we went another 2 miles down the hill to Meltham to take another look at the tractor factory as it is now a carpet warehouse. We went through the main gates into the yard to were all the tractos used to be parked waiting delivery. The road from Holmfirth to Meltham is up a very teep hill and they would randomley take new tractors off the assembly line and send them up the hill for testing. Holmfirth is the town where the TV program Last of the Summer Wine was made. If you want any more info on all things DB just contact me Michael Hart, ex DB dealer salesman not forgetting a Merry Christmas to you tractor guys your side of the pond. MJ

It was a fairly typical Northern Ireland farm where the main enterprise was dairying but some pigs, poultry and sheep were also kept. Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm.
