Wood Tractor Show Plows On

The unique celebration of tractors that is the Walter Wood Tractor and Agricultural Show went forward on Saturday, October 17, despite the weather and COVID-19. This was the eighth annual show, with the focus this year on antique and older tractors.

Dan Moore of Ludlow, Vermont, gets his Titan Model 10-20 tractor ready to participate in the parade. The running tractor was manufactured by International Harvester in 1917, one of the first models ever produced by IH. The tractor drew every visitor at the Wood Park show to it.

One of the highlights of the show each year is the Burton Luke Tractor Parade. While a damp and dreary start kept the number of visitors down at first, by noon when the parade rolled off, Wood Park was full of spectators, as usual.
