This little display includes a diesel engine, Tangye horizontal single cylinder steam engine and a Browett, Lindley inverted vertical compound (enclosed) steam engine driving a dynamo (DC). There is some fine period switchgear alongside, at least some of which came from the local engineering works of Hick, Hargreaves.
