My name is Michael and i live in England i recently purchased off you,
Item no 51606 ho steam loco usra060 w-smoke slope tender (New Haven) #333.

I am using and E-Z Controller and i have
programmed the light on the train to be configured to number 10. The train is
running perfectly normal. However the train is not smoking ive followed all
the instructions, as in supplied , i have had the train warmed up for 20
minutes,. the switch on the train is in the on positon and i have put a couple
of drops of oil supplied in the funnel and after all this there still no smoke,
have i done something wrong?

Hi,
I also have an 0-6-0 that is supposed to smoke but doesn't.  It's brand new.  Doesn't anyone have any advice??

Leave it alone.

1)  North American smoke units look about as realistic as if someone has stuck a cigarette down the stack.

2)  The oils from the smoke dirties your track.

Cheers.
