I know you were being silly, but even low grade lignite coal burns with a grayish yellow color. It just produces less energy as it burns. A good example is any color picture of a Chinese or Soviet-era Eastern European coal-fired factory.
Anything that's powered using decent coal should have a gray smoke cloud.
We need more and different smoke colors. Black for oil/fuel fires, and burning vehicles, dark gray brown for dirty coal-fired smokestacks and building fires, light gray for steam, clean-burning coal smokestacks, and wood fires, plus colored smoke for air support and supply drop missions.
As for trains, since you can have steam jets emerging from the pistons, why can't you have BIG jets of steam shooting out of the smokestack and boiler when the train is destroyed?
