Re: Does anyone know who owns this combine or where it’s located
It would have originally been registered around the Edinburgh area of Scotland. Probably get more response on The Farming Forum.

Re: Weatherill
That would be for their largest artic shovels, the L84 and L86. From the proportions I would guess the latter. Probably got to that point too late in the day.
