Howard - G Taylor's post above summarizes the sources wet stacking very well. I see it along a nearby railyard in cold weather. Locomotives are left idling in cold weather to prevent freezing - often for a day or longer. When the locomotives are subsequently loaded up they'll spew this sticky black "stuff" that then rains down on everything nearby. It's especially noticable with snow on the ground. It's accompanied by large volumes of smoke and (occasionally) by exhaust stack flames as the accumulated fuel/oil/soot burns off. Quite impressive after dark!
