Old Workhorse

I was told by the owner that this is a third generation old soldier handed down from great-grandpa to grandpa to father. They use it for plowing the field in the summer and plowing the snow in the winter.

I added just a touch of paint effect and a slight bit of vignette because I felt that added a little bit of nostalgia and vintage vibe to the image. Hope you enjoy!

The memories send chills down the spine. Moving snow was so damn cold before tractors had cabs, but it had to be done!

WORKHORSE should be all caps for this one...amazing how long mechanical equipment can last when it operates "mechanically". Nice find...nicely photographed Tommy.

As usual a great shot. Thanks for the narrative. It's amazing how long machinery keeps running when well maintained.

Nice photo, Tommy. Those old Molines were real workhorses.
