I have a MTH mt-3011L, it came with PS1 and a seuthe smoke unit. I want to upgrade it to ERR and a fan driven smoke unit. Anyone have an idea of what fan driven unit will fit?

I use MTH smoke units in my upgrades. The Lionel rectangular smoke unit will work as well.
Do you have a part number for the unit(s) you use?
Lionel has 610-8057-200
Thanks. Do you have experience with that unit Train Nut? Is it a strong smoker?
You should get decent smoke from the Lionel unit, the MTH PS/1 smoke unit will really smoke you out! The part number is AA-0000011 for the PS/1 smoke unit. If you are going the "full boat" for chuffing smoke, then you can use my Super-Chuffer II , I then recommend the MTH AA-0000070 smoke unit as you can just swap out the resistors and it's a smaller package. You need a chuff switch for TMCC, naturally I'd recommend my Chuff-Generator to get prototypical 4-chuffs/rev.
I want to go all out with the smoke. I have a PS1 J and it smokes like mad!
Thank you for the recommendations! Now I just need 3rd Rail to get the ERR boards in stock and I can go all in.
Scott says they should be in around a month, I hope he's right.
I hope he's right too. I have a bunch of conventional engines I need to switch over.
I talked to Scott at York, he assures me they're in production and should be here soon. He's a pretty strait shooter, so I think they're probably really coming.
That's good to hear.
