Turner Yeoman of England Tractor 1950s
What is your favorite tractor?
An interesting new make of tractor to come to the British market was the Turner Yeoman of England in 1958. Power came from a 40bhp V-4 diesel of Turner's own make and based on a marine engine. Unfortunately, although it was a well designed tractor and pleasant to drive with an upholstered bucket seat, it suffered from mechanical failures, and that, plus the high price stopped production in 1957. The Turner was one of the first tractors to use a dry air-cleaner although this was not successful and was soon replaced by an oil bath type. Dry air-cleaners would become almost standard in later years.
