Red Power Round Up, Du Quoin, IL

WOW, really nice. thanks for sharing
My late uncle had one of those offset flail mowers for a cub. the picture you posted makes me wish I had that mower today.
 
We haven’t been to a round-up for a few years, but I believe this was a good one. With so much area, the tractors are spread out, a good bit, there are a lot more than one realizes. There is lots of really nice stuff, here. We’ve really enjoyed the show and I think the chapter has done all they could think of to make it enjoyable for all those attending. Good job guys and gals. We ran into quite a few forum members, it was good seeing them.

Did not miss it, just to many people around it when I was taking pictures.
There was also a yellow lowboy that I did not get a picture of because of the people around it.

I will second what Gary said. A job well done by the Illinois Chapter. :!:

The last RPRU I attended was Du Quoin 2012. I believe there were more tractors here that year but, the representation this year was excellent. I'll leave this RPRU feeling i didn't miss a thing.

Looking forward to next year marks 75 years of Farmall cubs. Being the featured tractor, there are two choices of toy show tractor, a red tractor and a white (demo) tractor. I believe only 350 of each will be made. I just thought you all night want to know that :!: :wink:

I also met and talked with the owner of 501. His plan is to have 501 at Springfield next year. I plan on being there too :!:
 
Rodney, thank you for sharing the pics. Looks like it was a great show.

Yep, I’ve seen the toys and they look nice. Still pretty sour they’re recognizing the Cub and ignoring the 75th anniversary of the Super A though….. :?

They'd "look into it." Which I interpreted to mean T. S. if you know what I mean..... :roll:

Yes John, I had the Prewett Post hole Digger the there. A lot of Tractors to see for many different eras.

Last estimate we heard was 400 Tractors

the Southern Illinois Chapter did a excellent job pulling it off.
