Steve "Papa" Eastman posted:Marx made 400 and 401 clockwork locomotives with “smoke”. The smoke was actually baking powder in a rubber bladder that is hit by a paddle. Nicknamed Mothers Curse due to the powder deposited on floors and carpets. I suspect many a mother threw them out. Pretty hard to find with a good bladder. They are usually rotted off or hardened. This mechanism was also used in a low end electric loco.
