Where can i get one of the brass fittings that insert into the outlet of a 610-8057-200 smoke unit? I am doing an upgrade/replacement and the new unit does not come with the fitting, and the part is not listed separately.
Thanks

The age old question... 
They're rarely available, I keep ordering them, and occasionally I get a few.
AA-0000102 Brass Cup
After struggling, I have come to realize (I think) that this is an MTH part number.
Can anyone provide the Lionel number for the 8057 smoke unit?
Duuhh, sorry I totally spaced out there! 
I don't know what the Lionel number is any of their smoke unit ferrules.

Thanks!
You need to do your own research. Go to Lionel's site and search on funnels. You need to see what can match your specific need. Otherwise, make your own with brass tubing. MTH is unique in using threaded top an different brass cups can be purchased, most of Lionel are press fit. G
Oddly, "funnel" doesn't bring any of these up. I had to search first on "brass", and then look through the brass listings for smoke parts.
Not a big job to fabricate.

However, the part that actually presses into the smoke unit, 610-4572-030, doesn't show up in that search, it turns out it's not called funnel. Apparently the funnels are the parts that mate with the brass fitting.

But you do get the gold star, don't know where I went wrong as my search for "funnel" came up with nothing. 
I like to have the brass fitting on the smoke unit as I typically solder my homebrew brass funnels to the brass fitting for the smoke unit.
Seems like Lionel web has become harder to work with, different combination can or can not work. I have used their site to find cast dual stack funnels before for a brass big boy smoke upgrade. G
