America Importing British-Made Ferguson Tractors £15,000,000 Order -- A double row of nearly-completed Ferguson tractors on the assembly line at the Coventry factory. In the world's largest tractor factory here, 250 tractors leave the production lines every day as part of a £15,000,000 order for America, one of the greatest manufacturers of these machines. First batch of this order - a vital part of Britain's export drive - will sail in the freighter 'American Farmer', recently salvaged after being wrecked off the British coast when sailing here with essential parts for the tractors. January 16, 1948.
