The Machines That Changed Farming Forever

This is the collection that gave Tractorhead its name. From the early kerosene burners that sent the horse team into retirement to the classic workhorses collectors recognize on sight, these are the tractors that reshaped how America farmed — filmed running, pulling, and working.

Host Galynn Ferris grew up on a fourth-generation Nebraska farm, and he walks you through each machine like a neighbor at a plow day: how a hand crank, flywheel, or pony motor brings an old engine to life, why different engines sound the way they do, why steel wheels gave way to rubber tires, and the engineering advances that turned days of field work into hours.

Whether you own an antique tractor, are restoring one, or just love the sound of an old engine, these videos put you right on the drawbar.

  • Crank, flywheel, and pony-motor starts
  • Plow days and field demonstrations
  • Belt work powering threshers and sawmills
  • Kerosene burners through classic workhorses
  • Walk-arounds with restoration details
  • Tractor shows and parades
