Tractor run helps raise funds for Royal Welsh showground improvements

Fri 16/09/2016

An enjoyable classic tractor drive through the Welsh countryside will help Carmarthenshire’s fund-raising efforts as feature county for next year’s Royal Welsh Show.

The initiative by Georgina Cornock-Evans, the 2017 show’s RWAS Lady Ambassador, brought more than 50 tractor enthusiasts from throughout Carmarthenshire and across Pembrokeshire for the 45-mile run supported by McCormick.

When not engaged in her duties as RWAS Lady Ambassador up to the show at Llanelwedd on July 24-27 next year, Georgina works alongside her husband Arwel Evans as a director of the family-owned McCormick tractor dealership, Arwel’s Agri Services, Harford near Llanwrda in Carmarthenshire.

While most of participants drove classic and vintage tractors, a 120hp McCormick X6.430 represented modern tractor performance and technology – and the comfort of a spacious, air conditioned cab.
