The annual Spalding Model Tractor Show was held at Springfields Events and Conference Centre on April 12th. The show attracted a huge number of visitors from throughout the UK and mainland Europe. There was also wonderful line up of full-sized tractors on display outside the venue that was headed by J W E Banks Ltd.'s impressive John Deere 9520R.
This tractor was bought new by J W E Banks Ltd in September 2016 and has been used over the past decade with a wide variety of primary cultivation kit and a 12-furrow reversible plough on their 1200-hectare arable unit.
The mighty 9520R was in production between 2015 and 2021 and is powered by a 13.5 litre, six-cylinder turbocharged John Deere PSS engine rated at 520hp. It's capable of producing a maximum 572hp. Power is fed to the ground through John Deere's 18 speed e18 powershift transmission.
