After viewing the giant tractor in Carnamah, we visited the tractor museum in the same town. When the machinery dealer sold his business, he put his efforts into creating a museum. He has concentrated on the models he used to sell viz. Chamberlain, Chamberlain John Deere and John Deere. The first two models are no longer produced.
We spoke to the attendant about the giant tractor who said it had been painted in a gloss finish when it should have been matt. There was one other detail that wasn’t quite right either but I can’t remember what it was. The guy wasn’t complaining; just telling us like it was. For our $10 fee to see the tractors, we were encouraged to help ourselves to a cup of coffee and a biscuit, which we did.

When I was little I was overwhelmed by how GIGANTIC my grandfather’s tractor was. Of course, it really wasn’t that big, it was just that I was so small.
Fun fact: International Harvester tractors were made right here in Louisville, a long time ago.
