Actually the steam should exit from the cylinder cocks, alternating from side to side as the locomotive moves. To be done accurately would be VERY difficult for the Lionel designers.
and down blow from the fire box would be much better
Well, the "blow down" does NOT really come from the firebox itself, but should come from the Wilson Blowdown Separator. Another VERY difficult feature to do properly.
, but the blow out valves are great.
Apparently you mean the "safety valves". They should NOT all be blowing at once.
All in all a very good engine.
