Does anyone have experience with the MTH 50-1036. I believe this is an integrated TIU and WIU.
I would be interested in one - my TIU and WIU simply don’t work. I think the TIU is the problem. I’m willing to try one more thing to get the MTH stuff to work.

Since this is simply the TIU and WIU packaged together, I can't imagine why it would work if you can't get the same combination to work. I'd suggest you try to find out what's wrong with what you have now.
FYI, the Mth 50-1036 is not an "integrated" system, it's just the two pieces packaged as a product offering.
I bought one a month ago, works great, love the dcs app and like GRJ says they are the same thing you have. It saves you maybe $40-50 over buying individually. Might need some troubleshooting before you spend $340?
I just the 50-1036 package and I am waiting to receive it in the mail. Do I need power supply for this item ? And if I do, which one would you recommend ?
The WiFi unit comes with a brick, and the TIU, of course, needs a regular transformer to supply power. The TIU is not a power source, it's strictly a control unit.
I use the Lionel PowerHouse 180 bricks with the TIU, they're a great combination.
Devil dog, You probably know this but... the "wall wart" in the picture powers the wifi unit with the antenna (the brick GRJ mentions). The TIU needs a supply and GRJ uses a powerhouse. I retired a Z-1000 when I bought this and I used the "brick" from it for the TIU. GRJ has me beaten by 80 watts! (or is it volt-amps?) 
Okay. Super. I will go to my local hobby shop tomorrow to pick one up. Thank you so much for the quick reply.
