New York New York!! Well, a little bit west of the Big Apple, there’s some beautiful farm country near the Finger Lakes area. Four Two-Cylinder clubs hold this great show every other year where you can see a plethora of John Deere tractors, equipment and vendors in a nice setting on the New York Steam Engine Association grounds near Canandaigua. Officially titled the New York State Two Cylinder Expo Association-Expo XI and held July 11-13, 2013, this is pegged on their brochure as the world’s largest antique two cylinder John Deere show. This year’s feature was John Deere Model G.
This is a part of the group who meets you in the parking lot sending you in the right direction to park. The horses are always a fun distraction for kids young and old.
Lots of activities, demonstrations and seminars are included in the schedule. Tractor pulls are always a big favorite.
Arlene, Shirley and Joyce man the booth for Jorde’s Decals!
This year’s Expo XI truck was a 1957 Chevy Step-side Pickup (cost $35.00 plus $6.50 for shipping) If you are interested in purchasing the collectible truck, send a check to A & B COLLECTIBLES 352 South Drive, Rochester, New York 14612. There are still some Expo X models available as well. Call Al Hain at 585-227-1864.
My pals with John Deere & Company thought it was a good idea to get me in this picture with Chris Boyens of John Deere and a nice guy we met there at the show! I really AM a Munchkin from Kansas!
