Found
on a good number of diesel locomotives, Wind Deflectors
were mounted onto locomotive cab sides to do what their
name says - deflect wind. Similar to a rear view mirror,
wind deflectors feature a see-through glass center that
doesn't hinder site, but deflects wind for the train
crew.
Our extremely accurate wind deflectors are the perfect
addition to your diesel models.

To
mount:
- Remove molded -
on grab irons with a sharp hobby knife blade (#11) or the
broader chisel blade.
- Before sanding
the shell surface smooth (if it already isn't), use the
molded on grab iron markings as the template
to drill your new holes or use our etched-metal drill
template (BLMA #57). Drill the holes for the grab irons
using a #80
or smaller drill bit.
- Once your holes
are drilled, you can sand down the surface of the shell
to totally remove the old molded on grab irons
(though sometimes you can get things flush with just
your blade).
- We suggest using
toothless pliers to grasp the grab iron while installing.
- By this point,
all of your holes should be drilled. Without using glue,
insert grab irons into the holes. This step will
give you a good indication of how things are lining up
before they are glued in place.
- After the grab
irons are installed without glue and look straight and
uniform,
remove the grab irons one by one with
toothless pliers, dab the ends in super glue, then reinsert
them leaving the grab iron away (not flush) with the
shell. Once you have one grab iron glued in place, use
it as a guide
to how far out you will place the rest of the grab irons
- .023" is perfect.
- Once all of the
grab irons are in place you might notice that a few are
not exactly parallel. This can be fixed with
a gentle hand and toothless pliers. Without grasping
the wire too hard, gently bend the iron into the correct
position
- If you would like
to paint the grab irons be sure you to use thin paint.
