It was a record setting day in St. Albert on Sun., Aug. 11 when François Latour and his incredible team of volunteers reclaimed the Guinness World Records title for most threshing machines operating at the same time in one location; smashing the previous record of 139 with an impressive 243 antique threshers competing. Pictured here, the team of Gerald Swerdfeger, Derek Murdoch, Brad Johnston and Ryan Thompson of Chesterville and Morewood who showed up in matching coveralls and straw hats.
