The Old Hot Wagon
Posted By thecircusblog on March 25, 2010
This is what as known as the hot wagon. It’s really a diesel powered electrical generator used for the electrical needs of the Capell Bros Circus. This was their main plant and turned out 250 KW to 300 KW. Smaller electric plants were used for the back yard, usually 50 KW would supply all the trailers. A true hot wagon has transformers and cuts into city power.
