More than 70 tractors were on display over the weekend at Hallockville Museum Farm in Riverhead during the Long Island Antique Power Association’s annual summer show.

Some tractors were built in the early 1920s and the show featured a tractor pull where drivers dragged heavy cement blocks across a dirt track.
