It uses the same battery pack that the R/C system uses. The one I use in the box car is modified for manual control . I did this by removing the servo amplifier and wiring directly to the servo motor. It is controlled with a simple on/off switch. Carl Carl Malone Algerita Botanical Railway San Angelo, Tx

Hi Carl. Received your second e-mail ( great looking work ) like your little brakeman to ;; question do you use R/C to work your pump ( ie ) just on/off . Thanks again.

Re: Box car and water pumps
Hi Carl. Thanks a million for your reply ;;your notes are very much appreciated ;; yes that is what I was thinking a larger butane tank and a small oscillating cylinder outside a small water tank and as you said manually controlled by R/C ( you can tell when the water is running low by the speed increase. I have made basically the same idea for a GWR small prairy ( ie ) a boxcar containing metholhydrate and a water tank with hand pump ;; the engine has an axle driven pump . Thanks again Carl.
