The Pump Station is a location in New York City which appears in the Tales of the TMNT. Pump stations, otherwise known as a pumping stations, are public utility buildings containing pumps and equipment for pumping fluids from one place to another.
History[]
The Pump Station is first mentioned in Raph vs. Water. Raphael eavesdrops on the East River Three as they make their plans, and he hears Goldfin tell Mustang Sally to "take care" of the pump station. Raph has a very bad feeling about this and knows he needs to warn his family.
In Leonardo Saddles Up, Leonardo chases Pigeon Pete through the city, not realizing that the mutant pigeon is tracking Mustang Sally and Lee the Eel through the underground tunnels. Clinging to Pete's leg, Leo winds up crashing through a window of the pump station. He soon realizes something is wrong when he checks the nearby machinery and finds it is overheating. Leo is attacked by Mustang Sally, who assumes he is there to stop the East River Three's plans. Though Leo tries his best to stop Mustang Sally, he is at a disadvantage due to police interference. Leo and Pete escape the pump station and the police, but the machinery overheats and explodes, shooting stored water out of the building to flood the street and the Natural History Museum next door, which was the plan.
