R8131 Operating Conveyor. The loaded end tipping wagon is shunted up the ramp constructed using the inclined and high level piers. The uncoupler on the special end rail releases the wagon so that it can roll down a slight gradient onto the tipper unit. The unit is then tilted by the operation of an electric motor located in the tipper housing. The wagon once fully tilted tips the 'coal' into a receptacle or the R8131 Operating Conveyor Hopper. Incorporate a 12V DC motor, the power for which maybe obtained from the R965 Standard train controller as supplied with the majority of Hornby sets or from a suitable uncontrolled 12V DC power power source.
