The Day The Tractor Became an Industry

THE FIRST COMMERCIALLY SUCCESSFUL TRACTOR: HOW ONE TRACTOR BROKE THE BLACKSMITH TRAP Before the early 1900s, most attempts to put gasoline engines on wheels for heavy farm work were fragile experiments that often failed as soon as they left the inventor’s hands. Charles Hart and Charles Parr changed this by building the first U.S. factory devoted exclusively to gasoline traction engines, turning one‑off “gas tractors” into a standardized industrial product. This is the story of Hart‑Parr Serial Number 1207—the 1903 Model 17‑30 from that pioneering production run—and the engineering discipline that finally began to move the farm world past the era of steam. --- If you enjoyed this video and want to support the channel, look for the Heart icon that says "❤Thanks" in one of the buttons below the screen.
