First thing is why does this happen
When it gets going the smoke stops coming out there.And for some reson it is not as powerful as it should be it won't even go up a 1% grade on its own and it real life it could pull 3 or 4 cars up a 4% grade.What am I doing wrong.It had a TE of 10,933lbHere is the .eng file.SIMISA@@@@@@@@@@JINX0D0t______Wagon ( manson_bogie

the format of these little blocks is as follow: offset.x offset.y offset.z
normal.x normal.y normal.z
width in metres defining the offset from the shape pivot point
where steam / smoke should appear, the direction
it should go and the width of the nozzle
