Post Erik P. in front of the post office at Tommerup Station.

Erik P. (also known as Erik post) had to drive to the post office by tractor on April 14, 1966, when Denmark was hit by a violent blizzard at this late hour - in fact the latest time for a nationwide blizzard.
Erik bought a farm/property in 1965. He ran the farm/property with cows and horses, and much of the field work continued with the horses and not just the tractor, right up until 2003.
The tractor in the picture is a Bukh D-30 from the tractor factory BUKH in Kalundborg.
In 1960 came the new model BUKH 302, but the factory continued the manufacture of the old D-30 for a while longer. It was sold at a lower price.
It got the new, rounded radiator cap as the only innovation. It is such a rather rare "hybrid model" from 1960-61 that Erik post drives.
