Anderson Recreates Largest Steam Tractor in History

This machine is a replica of the largest steam tractor in history. Nine of 150 CASE were built by the J.I. Case Co. between 1905 and 1907, but none survived. Steam tractor enthusiast Kory Anderson of Anderson Industries LLC recreates it using the original blueprints from the Case company, with some 50 people, $1.5 million and 4,000 hours invested. A long-time foundry and farm equipment manufacturer friend of ours, we used to regularly visit Kory in North Dakota.

Can’t We All Just Share the Road?

Our farmer friend John Young of Kentucky penned a good “do’s and don’ts” reminder about sharing the roads with farmers and their machinery … pass it on!
