On the way back to Edinburgh, we found a Fair was operating at Kirkcaldy. I wasn't very interested in the event, it was too flipping cold for a start, but was most intrigued in these two Scammell "Tugs" (this image and the next one). These would be the modern-day equivalents of the old Showman's Engine, basically a Traction engine but with refinements like an electrical generator. I would be most intrigued to learn the age of these two machines.
