[Diggin It]

Home - Farm Machinery Show

Dates: Wednesday, February 13 through Saturday, February 16, 2019

Hours: 9:00a.m. - 6:00p.m. daily (EST)

Location: Kentucky Exposition Center, 937 Phillips Lane, Louisville, KY 40209

Prices: National Farm Machinery Show admission is free. Parking is $10 for cars and $20 for buses.

On the Visitors Tab there is a link to the floor plans of which exhibitors are where. Kind of interesting that Little Blue got a spot directly across from Big Green and Big Orange while Little Orange, Big Blue and the Reds are all scattered about. TYM is there, but RK Tractors doesn't come up in a search at all.

Would be a 9 hour drive for me but I want to go one of these years.

It’s 200 miles from me and I’ve been twice. There’s not much there in the compact tractor spectrum but it’s a neat show. I recommend going if you can. I also recommend not going on the weekend because it’s crowded. And if you do make it just imagine having a shop the size of those buildings.

My wife and I will be there. I still can't believe she agreed to go! Got a great place to stay via VRBO. I'm pretty darn excited to say the least.

 

[Tractor Time with Tim]

Christy and I will be there. We may miss the first day, but we will be there for the rest.

11am each day at the Compact tractor area of the Deere booth. Hope to see you there.

Will you be signing autographs, Tim? :thumbsup:


I've been twice - it's an awesome show and experience. I went last year and did meet KennyD and Tractor Time With Tim (and his wife, Christy). All GREAT folks!!


If you go... wear comfortable shoes! The place is HUGE and you will be walking all day. If you can stretch it out over two days, I'd recommend that.

Also, take a backpack of some sort so that you can put all of the literature and freebies in it. The first time I went I ended up with a couple of the cloth grocery bags from some of the vendors to put stuff in. My arms were aching from lugging that stuff around. Last year with a back pack was much nicer!

Ha! No one wants my autograph! ...but I hope to meet as many new folks as possible! ...just like we met you at last year’s show!

Looking forward to it!

I am going to be there for the first time. Have been given instructions by my daughter to get brochures of everything for my tractor crazy two year old grandson.

So I need to take a backpack?

You still won’t be able to carry everything. Take a picture of the brochures you want to search for later and only take the ones you really want.

Maybe a small trailer? :cool2:


Any show or convention I've ever been to has had more stuff than can be comfortable to carry.

When I posted this, I had every intention of going, but I just don't think I'll be able to pull it off between weather, driving time, room expense and all. I really, really, REALLY want to talk to the LS reps though, but I don't see it happening at this moment.

Just a reminder to all that are planning to go :thumbsup:

Tim, myself, and the guys from R2 Manufacturing ( the "Edge Tamer" guys) will be hosting this

 

[Diggin It]

THIS!!

I was half joking, but thinking more, maybe one of those wheeled luggage carts?

 

[Ortimber]

I never thought of the ability to carry show goodies. We are currently packing, need to think about adding a carry-all....

 

[Sawyer Rob]

Everyone and their brother there, will give out FREE bags to put things in...
