Hello,
When I was at Rollag in 2007, they had the video of the JD Expo in 1994. I wanted the video because my Dad and Grandpa were at that show. I bought the video. I thought there would be lots of tractors in the video since the case said it was the 1994 Expo- John Deere. There were no tractors in that show, all that show had was the WMSTR buildings, trains, etc. No tractors. Me and Dad were not happy with it. Could the new shows show more tractors in them? I would like that a lot better. Sorry to complain, but I'm not happy with that video.

Andy,

This year and last, we've been attempting to get a general overview of the entire show, and highlight the features, this year being the Expo Hill full of green. I can tell you we did get a bunch of Deere footage, however not as much as we would have liked, especially since the high winds knocked out our options for any aerial footage, as it was just too windy to be anywhere other than on the ground.

The input is always appreciated, and I understand your concerns for wanting to see the expo items featured in the videos. I hope that this year's DVD will be to your satisfaction. I am working on some of the final edits as I write this, so stay tuned for updates on availability shortly!

Thanks, My Dad recorded part of the JD Expo parade in 1994 and we recently found that video. It was fun to see that parade! Dad says it was very cold and windy the day of the JD expo in 1994.

Thanks,
Andy

They made two videos that year (1994). One that covered the general stuff at Rollag and the one that was exclusively of the parade. I think the name was "Parade".

Hi Andy,
Jeff is correct the 2nd video for the '94 Expo is called "WMSTR PARADE 1994 - PARADE OF THE PAST" This is video has the picture of Bjorndal's 1936 D belted to a John Deere Threshing Machine.
1994 show was definitly cold, wet and windy - sure was nice to have 2 of the 3 different for 2008..
