Very diferent configuration for a light plant, compared to those in the US.

In the early days of Robert's family's own show his Dad had a lighting plant in a cage type wagon like this one.

The plant was immaculate - polished pipes, lino floor etc and Alby Sr used to park it out the front where it was an attraction in itself.

english lister diesel engines
each 15 kva that was ample power
for our show.
