Just buy a J with PS3 already in it. They shipped last month.

I agree. Just sell it and put the money towards a modern 3 rail locomotive. You will be much happier, with less aggravation, and it is a much better investment. By saying that I mean, if you spend money to change the drivers to allow this locomotive to run on Fastrack and add PS3 ($$$ for the kit and labor--you never get that money back) you will most likely end up having something that most folks don't want because newer versions are more detailed and more accurate, etc. So if you ever go to sell it someday you will take a big loss. If you buy the new MTH J and sell it someday you will also take a loss but it will be smaller of a loss. Just my opinion speaking from experience.
