Yes, pleased to report that they are still of USA manufacture.  Although owned by Case IH Corporation (old JI Case), which is owned by Fiat, now-a-days.  Case adopted IH's red after acquiring International Harvester's bankruptcy assets, replacing it's former orange and tan colors - - - quite visually appealing !

Maybe now thinking, I could have been thinking of those monster Deutz Tractors (green).  I see a great deal of those on the farms south of Rochester.  Yes, I miss the Case "Orange".  There was a farmer near us in Caledonia that ran Minneapolis-Moline, and they were a similar color to the Case if I remember correctly.  Enough of reminiscing of my farm days.  Back to running my toy trains.
