I don't know if that's the same thresher all restored and shiny, or a different one. Either way, it's cool to watch it in action.
Though combines have long replaced threshers (and reapers, hence the name "combine") for commercial agricultural use, old school towed threshers are still a thing in Amish country.
Threshers were expensive hardware, so they'd get towed from farm to farm around a community.
