A farm northwest of town had a shop fire on new years day. They lost 4 tractors 2 combines a new planter and a sprayer and mixer wagon. 1 tractor had a loader and one had a dozer. I went by there today and they had the equipment lined up by the road. I heard that they were insured. It is a really unfortunate deal. The story I heard is that they think the block heater on the 1086 shorted out. I snapped some pics.

sad to hear that, hopefully they do have it all insured. Looks like a CASE with a blade sitting there? If they are looking for a cheap replacement, dad finally got the old CASE up for sale and it comes with a blade.

I mistook the ash for what was once white paint.

So I got some better pics. Here is the replacement to the 1086 and the old feedwagon. In front of the shop that burned. The equipment.

I was told the 1206 was sitting outside right by the shop. That is why it wasn't burnt so bad. There were a few things with the tires up. Apparently the heat was trapped up high in the shed and it wasn't as bad at the floor level. Some of the stuff might have been farther away from where it started too. And it might have been slowed down by the fire dept before they caught fire.

Either way it will put a knot in the pit of your stomach.
