An ad for a Case/IH axial flow combine caught my eye in the last walthers sale flyer I got in the mail. I'm sure it and more modern stuff can be found on their website.

I think that ERTL also makes some modern farm equipment in HO. The Norscot CAT equipment gets my vote, and Athearn is modernizing their JD line - all good stuff. I'm aware of the European die cast equipment, but not familiar with it.

cheers, krump

Athearn does John Deere equipment. Walthers 2004 catalog on pg 738 has 2 Resin kits...Modern Tractor and a Combine. Boley has a few listed. As well as IHC, LL, Kibri (has the most by far ), Preiser, & Wiking. Surf the websites for DTO, Walthers, 1stPlace, and others.

Hunter - When we met in January of 2000, you were just a 6 week old pup who walked his way into this heart of mine as the only runt in the litter who would come over to me. And today, I sit here and tell you I am sorry we had to put you down. It was the best thing for you and also the right thing to do. May you now rest in peace and comfort. Love, Dad. 8 June 2010

I love you and miss you Mom. Say hi to everyone up there for me. Rest in peace and comfort. Love, John. 29 March 2017

I know Norscot makes CAT industrial implements, but do any companies make 1980+ combines, tractors, grain hoppers, or two-ton grain trucks? So far I've only seen 1940-1960 farm equipment models in HO, but if anybody knows of a firm that make what fits my era, I'll appreciate you posting it.

Thanks.
