Hi there. Most folks on this forum are in HO or smaller scales, so don't be surprized by the radio silence. I don't own a loco like yours, but if I were you, I would contact Atlas and ask. You may also try posting the question on the Atlas Rescue Forum, and the MR Classic Toy train Forum. Good luck!

Atlas O scale TMCC C-630 help
Posted by NS6770fan on Thursday, November 8, 2018 6:53 PM

I have an Atlas O scale Conrail ALCo C-630 #6770 and the smoke unit is burned up. The thermistor is completely destroyed  the resistor/heating element is burned and charred. Also, the PCB itself has had some of the coating burned off. Does anyone know where I can purchase a replacement board and wicking? Sadly TAS, the manufacture is out of buisness. Will the Atlas part # 6947 Smoke Unit work? It says for smoke unit repair and retrofits. I am willing to look into purchasing a loco with simi internals at train shows, so are there any models that have the close internals to my model? Do the C-425/425s have the same unit? Thanks in advance for any help.
