Photo Album -
2006 Waterloo Boys John Deere Show
July 21-22, 2006
The 2006 John Deere Show was threatened by rain, most of which fell at night, but all events were held in clear weather. Many tractors were exhibited and "exercised" in the parade and pulls.
A special thanks to John Sitch for providing some of the photos for this album and to Dave Payeur for explaining the crankcase lubrication method for the club's Waterloo Boy "N".

Tips on viewing Photo Albums
Since our album for Day 3 of Steam School 2000, we have been using a "load ahead" feature in our photo albums.
If you use the "Next Photo" link at the top right corner of each photo, then it will pay you to continue looking at the current photo until the activity display at the bottom of your browser indicates the browser is done loading images. Then, when you click "Next Photo", it will appear almost immediately, and the browser will start loading the next sequential image. To put it simply, wait for the browser to complete loading images before clicking the "Next Photo" button.
