Battery or no battery | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I have been replacing all the batteries in my old MTH Engines.I came upon an engine that got me puzzled.I would love any help with this engine.The engine is one of MTH's first engines...the Premier Amtrak Dash-8...Cab #500 on it.Ihave opened it up as much as I can without pulling out or breaking any wires.I can not see any battery.On the box it states...DCRC Electronic Reverse Unit with Lockout by QSI.It also states...QSI Sound Compatible....and Diesel Horn.Does this mean that it Does Not have a battery hidden somewhere where I can't see? Any info would help me...Thank You

It is a conventional horn-only locomotive, no battery and no Diesel sounds.
Protosound was an option.
