View source for Peter Gaskins collection

The '''Peter Gaskins collection''' was started in 1976, by farmer Peter Gaskins from ? after an early [[Field Marshall]] tractor on his farm was condemned (for commercial use) by the HSE inspector due to the lack of roll-over protection. The new safety regs introduced at that time required tractors to have [[ROPS|Roll Over Protection]] frames fitted or [[Safety Cabs]].

Peter decided to restore the tractor, and then started collecting other [[Marshall, Sons & Co.]] machines and the associated [[Fowler]] of Leeds crawlers, as they were owned by Marshalls at that time. The collection grew and also includes the later [[Marshall Tractors]] of Gainsborough products as well.
