Ripley Classic Tractor and Machinery Show 2024.
WOW!!!!!!!!!. From the minute we opened the public came along and thoroughly enjoyed their visit.
So many tractors of different ages, makes and models. Stationary engine a good array of different models and sizes. From large enough to run from a lorry bed to small enough to put into the boot of your car .Ben Turner and Massey Ferguson group and friends of the Ferguson Heritage had a wonderful display of the 100 series Ferguson Tractors and others.
Military showed a variety of world war II and one from Korea with a lovely display of military vehicles.
The parades were run at 1 pm and 3 pm, with Phil Tracy commentating, the large Class Tractor showing the public its moveability and versatility with the cab being raised and turned 180 degrees claiming a large oooh from the public and a round of applause.
A dynomometer on site had the tractor people pitting their tractor against each other.
The tractor and trailer rides were as popular as ever and the smiles on the faces of the children showed how much they enjoyed the experience.
A very tired but happy Chairman
Steve.
