Cya Big Blue | Western Australian Sheep Farm Vlog

On Sunday, 23rd March 2025, we saw the end of an era. As Big Blue the TJ375 is repaired with a new starter motor in tow, and ready for action. No more smashed glass doors, no more broken hydraulic pumps or back ends, and no more starting issues.

With no more work for us to do with the tractor, and seeding only a matter of weeks away, it was time to have Yogi come collect Big Blue and take him to his new home where he'll fulfil the role of Air seeding tractor in Broome Hill.

So come join us, as we hear first-hand from Murray about his thoughts about the Tractor Jumbo, hear the tractor start up the best it's ever been, and say "Cya Later" to a Tractor that left its mark, as the TJ of TJM Farming.

As of the time of upload, we've been assured that Big Blue arrived safely at his new home, started up exactly the same as it did in this video, been given a wash and is currently awaiting a set of new tires.
