Whilst watching today's video on the BBC of Tornado setting off from Darlington, I was struck by just how much steam is ejected from the drain cocks as the loco is about to start. Now that we can have sound, lights and smoke from the chimney why not drain cock steam to envelop the front end as well? So I was wondering how effective putting a smoke generator between the rails might be, after all the locomotives usually start from the same place on the platform.
