Smoke stack and front axle design make this one a Rushton & Hornby Steam Tractor. |

I agree with the correction of the name but are you sure that is the make? -- Last edit: 2008-11-04 06:33:42 |

I'm not; I'm no expert in these things, but just because Reg mis-spelled the name doesn't mean he's wrong. I used to pass the R&H factory in Lincoln quite often in the 80s. |

Rather it was Ruston Proctor and Co. Ltd. during WWI (Ruston & Hornsby from September 1918). http://www.traction-engines.net/picture/number679.asp Probably 7 n.h.p. Traction Engine. -- Last edit: 2012-08-07 18:31:18 |
