Answer 2

There will be no smoke because it is an electric train which only use whats called a 3rd rail and that how it get's it's power.

Answer 3

Depends what direction the wind is blowing at the power station.

Answer 4

The train's electric - there would be no smoke.

Answer 5

aha,i am a proud driver of the class 323 electric multiple unit,

and the answer isany way i want it to...

you see,smoking is permitted in the driving cab,and depending on which way i turn my head depends on direction of smoke,

unless i open the window then its a kind of swirly motion,clockwise if i open the drivers window(left hand drive)anti-clockwise, should i open the opposite window,(not called the passenger window,because the unit allows 3non drivers into the cab with only 2 windows all h**l would break loose)

i can often be seen blowing smoke multi directional on my electic "train" as you put it, 10 to 15 times a day

but if your question is merely a prank backfired then i wont insult your intelligence any further

Answer 6

There wouldn't be any smoke if the train is electric.

Answer 7

Answer 8

actually, the electric train won't produce smoke. Only steam/ heat powered ones.

well, if you want an answer for a question like that, by changing the type of train from electric to heat to charcoalpowered, the smoke will go south.

There wouldnt because its an electric train! Theres no fire. N also this is a riddle which i thought that everyone heard of.

Answer 22

Everyone is wrong.  The smoke would come from the wheels due to the tremendous efficiency of the driver who was ensuring that the train arrives on time.  The wheels will be turning so fast that friction would produce smoke which would go in a southerly direction.
