Depending on the size of your screen, the picture might not display the
original size of the organ.
A Roland GR-55, is just a small guitar floorboard, in addition to the
floor board you need a guitar, it provides the Hammond and a Leslie:

There are keyboard based Hammond replacements available, too.
If you want something close to e.g. a Bernie Worrell alike organ sound,
a modern keyboard or guitar synth with emulations, is easier to
transport than a Hammond. Isn't it?

I've never previously heard the definition of a real Hammond with Leslie
being a keyboard who owns a house, but there is something to be said for

VSTs and synths is to
make it possible for someone sitting at home with no budget to write
for whole symphony orchestras *and hear something like it* without
spending the large amount of money needed to have an orchestra
actually perform a piece.
Being such a person, I'm not complaining. ;)
You also could be e.g. a keyboard who owns a house, a real Hammond
