No noise, no smoke from this steam engine
Author: WrongWayMurphy

Wonder if this worked as advertised.  Looks like it's a passenger engine
working from the Windsor to the State Fairgrounds in Dallas Tex.  This would have
been flat terrain between the two points, about 3 miles apart, so I suppose with slow speed and
a relatively light load, one could keep the noise and smoke to a minimum.

Note that it also requires antracite or coke for fuel. Anything of lower quality would likely produce smoke.

There is 1 or 2 of those at Traveltown, LA CA.
