Here in Forbes NSW on a bike ride to the lake we spotted this gem parked up. An Albion with a pair of tractors on its back with a yard full of other tractors n some trucks in the background.

Cobba, while you and Dee are in Forbes, take the time to check out the Sculpture Trail, if you haven't already done so. The Information Centre can give you the directions. Well worth the drive.

Cobba, they're all good, but the trail I spoke about is out in the country surrounding the area and the sculptures are huge. The best I thought, is one called "The Bird in the Hand" It is made entirely out of chain and is probably 500 times life size. As I said, well worth the drive.

Sitting here reading an old TOMM magazine n found an article on tractors displayed at the 14th National Rally in 2013. Another Iver tractor that I saw at the museum here. It may be the same tractor as they are rare out here in Oz.
