This is a purely cosmetic suggestion but it should get a laugh or two out of the player.

How about Locomotives on Rocketfuel would shoot flames out of the chimney and set the tracks on fire.
You know, something like that to show that you are using premium fuels to run your business.

Found this illustration on the webz:



I havent tested yet if you even can put uranium fuelcells into a train but if so, some green glow on the ground beneath the locomotive would be a nice touch.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to do so. I was actualy a bit disappointed about that, especially since the speed and acceleration of vehicles is now influenced by the type of fuel.

Ok, I take back what I wrote 8 months ago. In 0.16, it is now possible to insert nuclear fuel into a locomotive, which gives 250% acceleration.

See the following thread for more information:
