Back in the 60s through the 90s my dad worked for the city in our small town. They had a Minneapolis Moline RT, I'm assuming an industrial because it had a foot throttle. It was a short, squat heavy looking unit that was a former North Dakota highway department tractor. Apparently the highway department had a fleet of these that they sold off at some point. It had a heavy loader on it, but I don't think it was a Lull like I've seen on some. It had a stack of grader cutting edges mounted on the rear of the tractor to offset the heavy loader. Live hydraulic was from a pump in front of the radiator. The loader controls were 2 long levers coming from the platform up on the right side of the operator that were side by side. Toward the top of the levers they bent away from each other at a 45, then back toward each other to meet in the middle again. It was sold by the city in the late 80s or early 90s. I've seen a few of these tractors over the years but not in the last 25 or 30. Has anyone else ever seen one of these or know of any around the NoDak area?
