She was a 12 yeah, very clean yoke. I was only amusing myself for a couple of hours with it. I've driven a couple of them with loaders, hydraulics seem very sluggish on them all.

[MENTION=2560]mas[/MENTION]sey6480 will correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure that is the dual pump button which used to be a lever and doubles the pump output by diverting it from the linkage.
 
It's fairly impressive with the twin pump had a 5610 here on demo and it took the loader about 5 sec to go from the ground to full reach! They would put it up to a handler if the operator was used to it!

We had that lever on a 390 when I was a chap and was told NEVER to use it with the loader as it was far too fast. Of course I did what I was told ;);)

Have the same lever on the 362 and use it all the time on tipper work. I have to say for a little fart of a tractor and 20 years old it would put a lot of new tractors in there place.
 
was drawing silage bales all day today with no help so instead of hoppin out a few times every load to put the block under the stand i thought up of this. worked a treat!!

Be jaysus for a chance to gawk at a steam loco herself's head would spin I'd be gone out the door so quick:D.
The Dublin Cork main line passes the end of the farm here and most years I'd see one or 2 steam trains pass. Some sight in fairness.

Steam trains are run fairly regularly on the network. I think this crowd are behind it.... http://www.steamtrainsireland.com/

But, I've often wondered... they must be a very dangerous distraction for drivers on the road. It would be hard to resist looking across if you noticed one running alongside you....... :undecided:

Today was the first time I have seen one! I was surprised because there was no steam comeing out of the exhaust! She probably has an egr and add blue to keep the emissions down! [emoji16]
