The baby Madisons are the ones that are the same size as the set. They made a baggage car, a diner, a hot chocolate car, a disappearing hobo car, and an announcement car off the top of my head. They also made a matching wood sided boxcar that looks pretty nice at the front of the train.

Thanks. Now if I can actually get the thing to smoke like the ads I will be happy!

I believe they also made a tender with digital sounds.
The engine is a pretty decent smoker but the only problem is that out of the box, you dont have a big enough loop to get the smoker that hot. The higher the voltage the hotter the smoke unit will get but with the small loop you would have to run the trains really fast and risk running them off the track to get a high enough voltage. Once you add more track and more cars, it will smoke better. More cars mean more weight for the engine to pull which means a higher voltage. You can also put the engine in neutral and turn up voltage to heat up smoke element and the smoke will be heavy when you run the engine but will fade shortly.
We have a crazy close out on the scale baggage cars while they last.
