Hello,

If I use Z, N, O or I scale smoke fluid in my HO locomotive, does that mean I will get smaller or bigger smoke?

Regards

Doesn't matter really, as long as you do not inhale....Laugh

No matter what scale you model, the molecules are the same size.. its why the movie scenes of old where they modeled ships on the ocean in a small scale environment always looked so bad - the water was still 1:1 scale water movement.

In the film "Das Boot" they used a model in 1:10 and the scenes with the model are shown in slow motion to get realistic speed of the water.
Thus some aspects can be corrected for films - but real water on a 1:87 layout will always have unrealistic movement.
