Just a few hundred metres east of Bow Island, on the north side of Highway 3 one will see a very large collection of threshing machines.

Though there are a few other machines, tractors and vehicles to be seen here, by far the majority are threshers. They are on private property, apparently someone's collection, but are easily viewed from the highway. There are at least fifty threshers here.
With a zoom I was able to pick out a couple of trade names, such as Case, Massey Harris and McCormick Deering, all of which were quite commonly sold in this area. Toward the back are several '50s and early '60s cars. Couldn't identify many, but I did see an Edsel in the group and what looked to be about a '64 Mercury Comet, as well as an early '60s Oldsmobile.
