Title: Injecting Smoke Fluid
Post by: metal4life on April 21, 2007, 04:51:34 PM
Could anyone provide some tips or instructions on injecting smoke fluid in a 4-8-4 steam locomotive?
Thanks!

Don't do it.

Smoke fluid vapors are bad for you, your family and your home.  They are very bad for your railroad.

Second that..DON'T DO IT !!

Pollutes air, leaves film on everything, miserable to clean up.

Just my thoughts,

Yep' that stuff will leave a oily film all over your locomotive.....plus it does not look realistic in the least bit....

Hi 'EdwardsDriver'

You've received excellent advice from some experts ... my 'two cents' worth is the very same as what you have already been advised ... don't use smoke fluid!

You'll be much happier (and so will your locomotives) without the 'gunk' build up on important electrical parts, as well as the smell, etc.

The inventor of the MNP smoke system didn't use it on the club layout he belonged to.  Don't use the stuff.
