A series of photographs taken at Parkgate Engineering Works owned by the Murray family who manufactured almost all the forestry ploughs from the 1950s through to the 1980s. This photograph possibly taken by Donald Thomson in 1976 shows a standard Parkgate plough fully kitted out with a S60/-/t head on beam. Standing in front are the plough head and tine options that fit onto the universal carriage and from the left are D60/-/t, D45/T60/t, S45/T60/t and 90cms Tine blade.

The PDF shows the same display from a different angle and also the plough carriage with S60/-/t head on its own.
