Very interesting modification of the tractor. Cat offered right hand drive versions of the Diesel 75 and, I believe the early D8 tractors for ploughing.Here are a couple of pictures of a D9D 260HP (I believe) pulling 17 furrows in the UK and a more impressive picture of a Diesel 50 pulling 21 furrows way back in 1936 092 D9D 260HP ploughing 17 furrows 15HP per furrow.

092 D9D 260HP ploughing 17 furrows 15HP per furrow.jpg

093 D9D 260HP ploughing 17 furrows 15HP per furrow.jpg

094 Diesel 50 with 21 furrows in Lincolnshire 1936 2.4HP per furrow.jpg

they have a big fire up that boiler and it must have a steam blower in the stack to draw the fire. this is also evidenced by the relief valve blowing off she is at max pressure. the sheer power of steam.
