Model Railroading > G Scale Battery EnginesDate: 09/13/23 17:56 G Scale Battery Engines Author: charlesn This may be a dumb question;
Are there any manufactures who sell g scale engines that are battery powered and are sold with hand held controls? `I have not seen any advertized. To me this would be great for a back yard rail road. No wiring just hand held controls like all the model car have had for years.... CharlesN Feel free to point me to a web site!

I used to power it by Electricity fed thru the track. Now it is fed thru from G gauge reefer connected to the locomotive thru small plugs between the U-25B and the reefer. I use 12 volt burgler alarm batteries to power the train! There is a small toggle switch in the reefer within easy reach to turn on or off!
