William Farley wrote on Thursday, July 13, 2006 (PDT):In northwestern Montana, Dad owned a large Twin City tractor with steel rear wheels that were at least four feet high. These wheels contained rows of "lugs" or solid steel triangles that spiked out from the rim, providing traction in soft ground. We used the tractor to power our saw mill that we ran on our homestead. It had a PTO with an 18" pulley on the left side that was perfect for hooking up to a belt that ran to the pulley for the saw's flywheel and blade. I do not know the year or model, but remember distinctly the big "T" superimposed over the "C" in an oval just above the radiator. The engine was very powerful and smooth-running. It was started by a crank at the front and the spark was provided by a magneto. Would anyone have an idea as to its approximate model year? We used the tractor in the late 1940s to the mid 1950s.

The photo was taken by Ozzie Sweet. New Information on this as follows; it was built by the Minneapolis Steel and MAchinery Company and had simple oil cups that needed to be kept filled. The front wheels did not have bearings.

Bruce wrote on Sunday, December 26, 1999 (PST):I wish I could remember all the details; somebody out there will, but Twin city tractors were one of the forerunners of Minneapolis-moline. Twin City threshing machine co, Minneapolis threshing machine co, Moline plow works, and a few others joined about 1930 0r 31 to try to weather the depression. They were able to survive in some form for another 40 years....
