Norm, first rate!! I was blown away at 2:09 in your last video!! Never knew that my loco's were capable of such performance! Out of curiosity, when loading the smoke unit, how many drops were you adding at a time? Thanks!
Thx Rick, I used about 10 drops at a time, hitting it again just as it petered out. Maybe I should use more but I'm about to slide the smoke switch to 'off' anyway and clean it up.

Thanks Norm!! I usually add 1 drop per minute of run time and do it after 10 minutes - 10 drops - purely a guess on my part. Anything less, and I think you are just wetting the funnel and resistor and not the batting. Got a good idea of smoke fills from 'laidoffsick' and his videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRcpFRtA6IY ; and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1asUWbJtfok
