Battery powered SMOKIN' stack in the Smokies
Posted by Grabnet on Saturday, November 3, 2012 4:29 PM

I am using the LGB 0-4-0 to kinda represent Little River Rail Road #1 pictured below.



LGB makes a very nice smoke unit and I thought I would give it a try. I never used the smoke effects in HO for fear of oiling and dirtying the track. Since I am using battery power for this representative of the Little River Rail Road in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee I figured it wouldn't hurt to fire up the stack smoker on the little 0-4-0.



I really enjoyed the effect and since this was a first for me thought I would take some pictures in the sunlight of autumn.







So far the battery holds up pretty good while the smoke is flying out of the stack and overall I have enjoyed this effect.
