I can confirm that SpecialEffect functions (eg HeatingHoseFX, WagonSmokeFX, etc.) do not really work with OR MonoGame. Not even with the new merged version.
I have tested these in the latest unstable version, and both of these appear to work correctly (As the MG version is a derivative of the mainstream version - similar to the unstable version, I would expect the MG version will work).
I would suggest trying the unstable version first to confirm that the stock has been correctly set up, and then try the same stock in MG version.
It should be noted that the steam leaks associated with HeatingHoseFX will only appear when the steam heating is turned on from the locomotive - Alt-U and Alt-D. Also note that the locomotive has to be set up for steam heating.

I think we don understand each other. I try to put the Visual Effects described
here in a wagon, in my case a Carriage where the head of the train is, the postal service and the heating boiler that supplies steam to the rest of Carriages. The locomotive can be a diesel or an electric one, depending on the area of the route.
This was also tested in the Unstable version, and works ok if the steam generator is located in a locomotive fitted with steam heating capability.
As also suggested above it does not currently work where the generator is located in a wagon instead of the locomotive.
This will require a code change and I will have a look at it in the foreseeable future.
I hope to set up a tutorial in the near future to demonstrate these features, and allow testing of the functionality.
Thanks
