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 need 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.

We highly recommend consulting reference photos to determine exactly what fan/blade configuration your model will need.
