Savage Electric Light Engine of 1891 celebrating its 100th Year at the Great Dorset Steam Fair in 1991. These engines were essentially portable showman's engines which could be hauled by horses or road locomotives and were designed to generate electricity for fairground rides and lighting. The similarity to their self propelled cousins the Showman's Road Locomotive can be clearly seen.
