Afternoon all,
 
Was just wondering if anyone has some across-the-types experience of these machines?
Apart from size, are there any appreciable differences between these 2 wheeled tractors and the jobs they can do?
There are alway a number of Orange Howards for sale (350's and Gems) but I have not managed to get much info on the other 3. The Anzani and Trusty always look very hefty and bomb-proof!
 
I was watching a Wartime Farm DVD last night and I watched them using a Trusty 2 wheeled beast and, later, an Allen Scythe. It set me off thinking again about the older/vintage machines and if they are really still useful today? 
Must say I prefer the older machines as they have some weight to them, the newer ones (Camon/BCS/pasquali etc etc) all seem a bit too lightweight to plough.....especially the peaty, and oft damp, ground up here.
So, any thoughts & ponderings about these vintage machines most welcome....especially if you have any on-line links that are good places to garner information.

Sskye.
