The California Antique Farm Equipment Show was held April 17-18, 2004, at the International Agri-Center in Tulare. This was the 12th year of the event, and this year’s theme was “100 Years on Tracks.” The collection of engines, tractors and equipment was truly impressive, and this was by far the largest show yet at Tulare.
