Agricultural Machinery

Tractors

There is a variety of agricultural machinery located throughout the site. Of particular note is the thrashing machine which we hope to restore in the future.

Rumley Oil Pull

This fully restored 1921 Rumley Oil Pull Tractor was donated to the Museum by the Rustad family of Prince George. It was used in the Mandalay Ranch area north of Prince George and rebuilt in 1993/94. The Rumley is a rare and special tractor and was an extremely powerful machine. With a drawbar rating of 25 horsepower and a brake horsepower rating of 40 it was more powerful than most of its contemporaries. The tractor gets its name from the cooling system, which is oil filled. The oil is circulated through the engine with a pump and cooled in the large box shaped radiator on the front.
