Re: Loco blower
Wayne: Your local Aster dealer sells them or you can cobble something together from a small electric motor, fan blades, batteries, etc. Look at one (maybe an Aster) to get an idea. Jim
Re: Loco blower
Those folks that I have seen lately prefer the Wada Suction Fan as it is all in one piece. Batteries are mounted on top of the fan unit and seems to work reliably..

Re: Loco blower
Bruce: Aster adapted the Wada style of fan a year or so ago. The old separate fan/battery was cumbersome. Jim

Re: 87-112 C16 DRGW #42
Is this engine something that is going to be available in the near future? Any idea when and how much? What an awsome little loco. It hasn't started shipping yet, as I understand it, but it shouldn't be too long. San-Val sent out a flyer several weeks ago listing the engine at a price of $1850 or so (if memory serves). What a deal! I'm saving pop bottles in hopes that I'll have enough for one before they stop making them. regards, -vance- Vance Bass Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA Small-scale live steam resources: http://www.nmia.com/~vrbass
