How do you make Lionel train smoke?

The locomotive will begin to puff smoke several seconds after track power is turned on. The locomotive will puff smoke only when the wheels are turning.

Does Train produce smoke?

The locomotive erupts a lot of smoke when the generator revs up to generate the extra power needed during acceleration. The smoke is black because the diesel is not cleanly burnt.

What is smoke fluid made of?

Fog fluids have two primary ingredients – an active one and deionized water. The active ingredient can be propylene glycol, triethylene glycol, glycerin or a mixture of these. The vaporization temperature varies for these ingredients, so you should use a fog machine that is compatible with the fluid you have.

Do all Lionel trains smoke?

Even many of the new Lionel conventional units have fan driven smoke, but Jake is correct that the cheaper starter units all still sport the puffer smoke units. Some of them will yield decent smoke, but nothing like a fan driven smoke unit.

Why do trains smoke?

Darker or blacker smoke is an indication that small fuel particles (coal, wood, fuel oil, etc.) have made it through the firebox unburned and are therefore wasted. Light or nearly invisible exhaust means that the locomotive fuel is mostly burned and transformed into heat, carbon dioxide, water, and trace elements.
