Well, I don't know if you could intall a fan driven smoker in it, but I do know if you get the smoke unit repaired again you can use pink insulation for houses since the old fluff in the smoker is burnt. Make shure you pack it tight but don't cover up the air hole in the bottom of the smoke unit because if you block the hole it won't puff. Hope this helps.

Oh, and Sign - Welcome, and happy railroading!!
