Built by the esteemed John Fowler & Co. in Leeds, England, this steam-powered machine is a testament to the rich history of agricultural innovation in Britain. The Fowler Ploughing Engine, with its distinctive red and black livery, is a heavy-duty tractor designed specifically for the rigors of farming.

The intricate machinery of the Fowler Ploughing Engine is on full display in this photograph, with its large flywheel, pistons, and boiler all working in harmony to power the ploughing mechanism.
