Hey all newbie to the forum. I just bought this Tyco 0-8-0 638 Chattanooga Choo-Choo at a train show for $15 and it runs. I would like to know if there is a manual out there for it? I want to find out how to add oil for smoke. and find out any thing else it can do?

Welcome...there's sparse info as they came with a generic sheet to cover the basics. Your smoke oil goes in the hole under the bell...just pop it out and use the funnel to help. BTW, those funnels are actually more desirable than the locomotive as they were easily lost.

I have one engine that even had smoke fluid and the funnel to it! No manual or parts diagram was ever made for it.
