"Smells like a skunk. Well, not really. The nickname originated in 1925 when motorcars were introduced. These single unit, self propelled motorcars had gasoline powered engines for power and pot bellied stoves burning crude oil to keep passengers warm. The combination of the fumes created a very pungent odor, and the old timers living along the rail line said these trains were like skunks: "You could smell 'em before you could see 'em".
(From ride the skunk train)
