I’ve always liked that one, especially since I own a XT series II. The mighty 190 was a big tractor in its day aside from the D21 in Allis’s lineup. Wish there were more factory pictures of all models.

Awesome picture AB !! It appears that these tractors are "staged" for delivery, To those that know, were all 100 series (170,180,190, and perhaps the 200) built on the same line, or were there designated buildings for different models ??

Crème was used from mid-1960 (before the mighty One-Ninety) thru late 1977. Bars or not on the grille paint color means nothing, except bar grilles were used with the old skirted fenders and the removable side hood panels.

Wow Soo Line locomotive. Kinda ironic, Soo Line was bought out and no longer exists and Allis suffered the same fate.

Love the train!! How many bottoms are on the LP 45? Looks like 5 on the 1st, 4 on the 2nd and 3 for the 3rd? That can’t be??

- In its search to develop electric power through chemical reactions,
Allis-Chalmers in 1951 began research on fuel cells. In October 1959
near West Allis, Wisconsin, this fuel cell tractor plowed a field of
alfalfa with a double-bottom plow. Fuel cells produce electrical power
directly through a chemical reaction, without heat, smoke, or noise.
Unlike standard batteries, fuel cells do not store energy but convert
chemical energy to electric energy.
-
This tractor has 1,008 fuel cells joined in 112 units of 9
cells each arranged in four banks that produced power to run a standard
Allis-Chalmers 20 horsepower dc motor. Using a fuel cell to produce
power was not a new idea in the 1950s. Over a century earlier, Sir
William Grove originated the idea of a fuel cell that would run on
hydrogen and oxygen. Over the years inventors experimented with a number
of fuels and configurations. The search for an efficient and economical
fuel cell unit continues.
