ROCO 62193 BR 10 DYNIMIC SMOKE SERVICE GUIDE

I have used water based smoke in the past but I do not recommemed using water based smoke as it caused alloy break down over time. This is a vid of the loco when I first got it with the sound at default volume.    • roco  62193 DYNAMIC SMOKE system   A WORLD'S FIRST: Dynamic steam emission by Roco! Digitally controlled steam emission! Seemingly realistically long lasting smoke clouds. For the first time steam emerges from the cylinders! Model: The Roco 62193 German Express Locomotive Class 10 is a very large and impressive model.  It offers a great level of detail and incredible running performance.  Model has all wheel drive, both the locomotive and tender wheels and powered.  Roco equipped this model with a syncronized smoke and sound  system.  Model blows smoke from the smoke stack and cylinders, the smoke is syncronized to the sound and speed.   Besides the smoke and sound Roco installed lighting effects such as the illumination of the driving mechanism and driver's cab and a white/red light change can be activated separately on both sides of the locomotive via a PluX interface.  Roco also did an exceptional job on the paint livery and delicate pin stripping.  The BR10 is one of the most iconic German steam locomotives and no European Model Train collection is complete with out this impressive model.
