BLMA #88 – 36″ Fan Grill W/o Center Plate – N Scale

Prototype History: We have designed our fan packages to retro-fit existing fan housings from such locomotive manufacturers as Kato, Atlas and Life-Like, among many others. Note:  Our 36″ fans work as 48″ fans on Z Scale locomotives! What fan style is correct for your project? We’re often asked what style of fan grill is needed for a specific project.  With so many variations of locomotives produced it is impossible to give a single, short answer that is always correct.  With that said, this is what we DO know: – SD40/GP40: This series of locomotives all use 48″ fans for both radiator and dynamic brake cooling.  For these models, you will ned BLMA #81-84 – GP30/35 & SD35:  These locomotives use a combination of 36″ & 48″ fan grills.  Our 36″ Fans are BLMA #87-88 and our 48″ Fans are BLMA #81-86. – SD50-SD90:  We’ve created a Modern EMD Fan Package for these models as they all utilize larger 53″ radiator cooling fans and one single 60″ dynamic brake cooling fan.
