    Came across this old Pathe clip.
    At about 2.20 demonstration of a SIMAR 56 with no driver. But whoever thought it was a good idea to operate in reverse with the miller engaged?

    No Dave, quite agree. As someone who has forgotten to put the miller drive in neutral when reversing, its definitely something you only do once in a lifetime!

    There are a few other machines featured, including a motorised sprayer which i don’t recognise at the moment….

    Some good and interesting clips to watch on Pathe News, I spent an hour or so last night and enjoyed all of them

    Yes, its amazing what you can discover on there. Good to look at in winter when its too cold to be in the shed!
