The water is filled using water cranes, which are set up at the stopping point of the steam locomotives. The typical capacity of small railway water towers is around 100 m³, which can be used to fill around five to ten tenders of small locomotives. This can be experienced in the Harz Mountains on the narrow-gauge railways. The Pfalzfeld water tower is 18 meters high. The foundation has a diameter of 8.50m and the water tank has a diameter of 6.60m. The height of the water tank is 3.50m. In Pfalzfeld there were 2 water cranes on the right and left at the end of the platforms. The fresh water supply came from a spring above the station complex. In winter, the tower was heated by a guard to prevent the water from freezing. The water supply system in Pfalzfeld has been shut down since 1960 and the cranes were dismantled around the same time.
