Maybe with some cabeeese, particularly old K-Line ones, but not them all. But, Alabama Joe, if you want smoke (& I would, too) the main thing to keep in mind is keeping enough fluid in it....or flip the smoke switch off. Dan's idea of drilling a hole in the bottom of the caboose, near, but not interfering with the smoke element, is a good first step.
I have one of the old K-Line's and it smokes a lot ! I have to watch because it gets real hot quick. I would not have bought it if I read these forums because the last thing you want is a caboose melt.
