A system for simultaneously operating a plurality of vehicles from one of the vehicles to automatically maintain them in horizontal alignment abreast of each other, which system includes a linkage interconnecting the steering mechanisms of the vehicles to produce identical turning movement in the vehicles, and a closed hydraulic-mechanical system which is connected to speed control devices on the several vehicles so that any vehicle which advances beyond other vehicles in the array will actuate a hydraulic signal which is used to change the relative speeds of the vehicles to restore horizontal alignment of the several vehicles.
