Little information other than: ‘Large Divisional tractor Plough at Millbuie in Oct 1937’. However the team are producing a very robust ploughed furrow much to the interest of the various observers. The tractor in this case is a Caterpillar Twenty Two and appears to be pulling what could be a Ransomes Solotrac plough but critical details are hidden by the observers. The features that are visible include: a large diameter wheel on the furrow side; no obvious sign of a tail wheel; relatively large mould board.
Can anyone confirm the type of plough and possible location?
