    wow i havent posted on here for so long!

    anyway, i have a newer gp18 arriving shortly (SCL) and am thinking about adding a few details, im looking at the BLMA page, and thought it might be cool to use their fans, problem is im not sure which would be appropriate. ive read somewhere that tehy are 48" fans. are they 8 blade with or without the centre plate, 10 blade with or without hte plate, or the 8 or 10 blade q fans?
    also does anyone have a suggestion as to which grab irons would be appropriate?

    i figured id try my hand at detailing since i have no room, nor enough time for a layout anymore. i miss it.

    the only room i can find is in one of the sections of a shelf, not really long enough to get in a good size switching layout. i like to watch the trains go too.

    i had a thought about building a layout into one of my bass cases though.

    does anyone know about the gp18 fans?

    UPSTEVE,

    You might want to post this in one of the non-scale specific fora. I have no idea as to the answer to your question, but maybe someone on this board who is not an N-scaler knows.
