Dave Carroll, superintendent of the "Antique Tractor Display" at the Ross County Fair

The Ross County Fairgrounds — The Antique Tractor Display is in its second year at its new larger site, with more tractors – but the same parade this afternoon. (It’s easy to overlook it beside the main parking area, between the ticket tent and the Horse Barn.)

I again spoke with Dave Carroll, superintendent of the display. The showing is open to anyone who wants to show any old tractor – it’s not a club and there are no other rules.

The show will start gearing up after 4:00 Thursday for the parade. At about 5:15 the tractors will start to wind all through the fair to the delight of many spectators.

Learn much more in the two videos below with Carrol and the tractors. Also watch last year’s interview with Carroll at the display.
