Old Ferguson Tractors Photo Gallery - Mount Pleasant Iowa 2007 - Annual Ferguson Expo
The Midwest Old Thresher's Reunion, host of the 2007 Ferguson Expo, is now over. Here are the photos and some other information on the event.
The Parade and FENA Banquet photos are finished, and the People photos are underway, and I haven't started on the photos of the field tractors and implements. If you notice any errors please let us know.
Note: this area of the web site is under construction and therefore it be a little inconsistent over the next few days, but I want to provide the photos as quickly as possible, because many at the show expressed interest in seeing them. I took a boatload of photos so I am dividing them up onto different pages instead of having all the show photos on one page as I have done for previous years. Having many photos on one page makes it take much longer to load.

These are the statistics from the Mount Pleasant show of where the show tractors were from and the counts of which model were present. What isn't obvious from this is that there were a great deal more club members who attended as well as other local Ferguson owners who could not bring a tractor. And of course we loved having four Ferguson tractor enthusiasts from the UK - Julie Browning and Peter Smith of Cheshire England, and Jackie McIntyre and Sam Neill from County Armaugh, Northern Ireland. It was great hearing their perspective and knowledge of Ferguson tractors, especially since there are a lot more working and show Ferguson tractors in the UK than here.

The tractor count includes two tractors that weren't officially on the field. Both are owned by the Midwest Old Threshers. One is a TO-20 that was displayed in one of their information booths, and the other was working the show hauling a water wagon.
