Internal Fire Museum of Power - gas producer plant
Internal Fire Museum of Power - gas producer plant
I can find no further information on this plant that would have been used to make gas from coal or wood to power an internal combustion engine. These are now quite rare and I can think of no working examples in the UK apart from the odd one on a gas powered vehicle on the rally circuit. A friend found one in Hungary that was wood powered and on standby at a land drainage pumping station.
