 The general info page for the brass hybrid series says they have puffing smoke. The level above a given specific product. http://www.broadway-limited.com/brass-hybridseries.aspx

Yes, the BLI I-4 model does indeed have a chuffing smoke unit.  I have an I-4 myself.

My mistake! I was looking at the I-5! Still, the OP is right that there is no mention of smoke in any of the BLI promos I looked at for the I-4 or I-5... seems odd that they wouldn't mention it?

Here's the I-4 WITH smoke: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_ZSbWSNXJA

I don't believe it does. I watched the demo on MB Klein's (Model Train Stuff) Youtube site and there was no mention of smoke there as well.

BTW, I saw World Of Trains was closing these out at $333. each! Not a bad price for painted brass in anybody's book!
