Reply to "K Line Smoking Caboose Resistor Size?"

For smoke, you want to have the resistor underrated, it has to get a lot hotter than the normal 125C temperature in order to produce smoke.  That's why the smoke resistors are typically rated at 2-3 watts, even though they are running them at 5-8 watts.
