The fan should be rotating clockwise.

Here's one of several links on the forum:

Some of my lionel engines put out good smoke, and some don't. If I take off the shell how can I tell if the fan is turning backwards? A lso does anyone have a list of the affected engines and models. I would say roughly 1/3 of my engines exhibit this problem.
