The Adjustable Hay Trolley Made by The F.E. Myers & Bro.Co. Ashland O. USA. Padt on April 13 1909 this unit is seized up. We could
break it loose with some oil and elbow grease and dollars but that will leave oil stains on it. Again what is up with
the matching patented dates. Item # ajustacle4-13-1909 Price $175.00

Myers Cross Draft Unloader H389 Made by The F.E. Myers & Bro.Co. Ashland O. USA. Padt on April 13 1909. The patented date matches
other F.E. Myers hay trolleys and we are not sure why. We do know that the bottoms units and top roller brackets can be interchanged
for timber runners, cable runners, and track style like this one. We do have a matching drop pulley for this one. Generally
they come with 2 but by the time we reclaim them there is just one most of the time. Item

Rusty J. E. Porter Co. Trolley This trolley is not operational
and rusted stiff. Much like all of then it could probably be broken loose with some time, effort, and oil but for now
is just for looks. That fact is keeping the cost down on this one. Embossed on the side
is; J.E.Porter Co. Ottawa, ILL. Item # porterrusty Price $150.00

The Goshen Timber Runner Don't
know much about this work horse but it looks like it was made to get the job done with no frills. We just hung the drop pulley
on here but generally it would be on the rope to hook onto whichever hay forks or net used. We do have plenty of original
rope for sale at $2.00 a foot to actually put this unit back to work. Embossed on the side
is; The Goshen MFC. CO. Hade St. Goshen Indiana Item # goshen02 Price $165.00

J.E.PORTER CO. Hay Trolley J.E. PORTER CO. OTTAWA ILL is embossed on the sides of this ornate
hay trolley. Had to personally risk my life to get this one stuck in the center of a very tall barn that was being demolished
just north of Byron, MI. Had to stick a 28' ladder in the middle of no where's and catch it on the track that does move and
swing. But had to save it before they dropped the barn and broke it. So please make it worth the effort and buy this one with
the story you can tell. Thanks
to a great enthusiast this when has been completely and professional restored to it's former glory. Picture below to show
the process and amazing finished results. When he gets his web site up we hope to post it here for your enlightenment and
enjoyment. He has an amazing amount of info on hay trolleys. Item # aa107ht Price $250.00
