Probably not an interest that many that frequent here have but Saturday was the start of the first of what is hoped to be more Tractor Relay Across Nebraska drives. The NAFA ( Nebraska Antique Farming Association) is sponsoring a tractor drive across Nebraska that loosely follows the route of the Pony Express. These photos were taken on Day 1 along the route between Plattsmouth and Waverly where I went out to see them. In addition to Waverly they have overnight stops in York, Grand Island, Kearney, Cozad, North Platte, Ogallala, Liscoma and end in Lyman
Here are a few pictures that I took while watching it on it's first day on Saturday.
Wish I would have known about this earlier. Â My father in law would have been all over this. Â He's got a collection of antique Farmalls that he restores/hobby farms with, that I'm sure he would have enrolled in the relay.
Again, for the few that this might interest on here the Two day Great Nebraska Tractor ride that has been organised by West Point Radio station KTIC for quite a few yeasr was this last Friday and Saturday. Â I have a set of photos as they made their noon stop on Saturday in Oakland Ne. Â Feel free to jump over to Flickr and take a look if this interests you.
If you are interested at all in Old Tractors the 8th annual Great Nebraska Tractor Ride took place on Friday and Saturday. Â Here are photos I took of each tractor on Friday as they left their neen stop in and again as they took their afternoon drivers break.
