ATSF is the only railroad I know of to try jointed boilers. Baldwin made the ball jointed boiler locomotives and accordion fold boiler locomotives for ATSF. There's no record of whether the accordion boiler could be persuaded to play musical notes during its operation.

But, does it smoke?
Once, men turned their thinking over to machines in the hopes that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.

I know, but over on OGR "how does it smoke" is a critical factor,

Your locomotive derailing all the time on poorly maintained industrial track? Get it back on the rails in a jiffy with the Benda Locomotive Bootstrap Crane accessory.

Do engines, such as your "Bootstrap", derail more easily since they don't have front pilot wheels?

No.
