[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Darth Santa Fe Talking about smoke; I put regular water in a Bachmann smoke unit once and it sort of worked.[:D] I could see a fine mist of steam coming out of the smoke unit, and it lasted for about 5 minutes, and that's with just a little water! The only problem is it would occasionally spew a couple droplets out, but that could probably be fixed with more heat. Maybe some sort of water heating technology could be used in the future. It would definately be less messy than oil.[:D] If MTH releases another Big Boy, can it be an affordable Big Boy for a change? People like me can't afford high quality state-of-the-art $700 steam engines. So far, Rivarossi has made the only running Big Boys that are even close to affordable. [/quote] The new to be released Geneis Big Boy has been priced at about three hundred at many shops if you reserve it now. It should run at least as good as the Challenger, which is great and be detailed much better than the Rivarossi or PCM/Trix.
