On May 9, 10, 1998, the Cumber-land Plateau Antique Tractor
& Engine Association of Crossville, Louisiana, held their third
annual show at the county complex. Saturday was a beautiful day
with a great crowd attending to view the large showing of 200
tractors and 150 gas engines. There were many working displays. The
local antique car club and the International Harvester Chapter 9
Club were in attendance and added much to the entire show. There
were several activities for the kids, such as a train rides pulled
by a tractor, hay rides and a pedal tractor pull.
There was to be a tractor pull in the arena, but as we had had
so much rain in the weeks before, it was a mud hole. After lots of
work with a road grader and other equipment, it was finally scraped
down enough to hold the pull.
Ice cream was made by gas engine power and a fine array of food
was served by club members. Sunday was a total washout as the rains
came and never let up.
Through the efforts of the club members and all participants,
the show was a great success. Come and visit with us next year.
