I am kinda guessing that IH made enough Electrall 400's to send one to each major ag show during the late summer and fall of 1954. If it wasn't sold at the fair, the local dealer had to take it back to his dealership. I would guess that the dealer probably either took off the Electrall and sold it separately or was forced by the market to give it away with the tractor. I doubt if few or any of the tractors were ordered by a customer. It would be interesting to get a list of Serial numbers for the few tractors that still exist. I own Farmall/Electrall 400 #520. It still has the original v-belts for the generator drive. I would think those would be the first items a farmer would remove because the Electrall drive is clutchless. It probably didn't take too much longer for the farmer to remove the whole unit and sell it to someone looking for a generator. IH must have had a large contract with General Electric because the 560 parts book still carried the Electrall Attachment. IH also made an Electrall rig for the 200. They also put them on PTO driven trailers and sent some over to the truck division.
