With an ITT sound module, a smoke generator, and some kind of breakaway bridge, it would be possible to sort of simulate this, if you had a big enough speaker.
Just make sure you do put insulated track on either side, or you might wreck that $1,000 plus engine for real.
A side note, there was an earlier episode of I Love Lucy that had a Lionel Super Chief. It was when Little Ricky was younger. Lucy fills the appartment with toys to convince Ricky they need a bigger place, which of course the Mertzs have available, but it costs more, and Ricky doesn't want to pay the extra money each month.
