I'm restoring a Porter locomotive and I'm hoping to locate an original style water glass lamp and/or gauge lamp. Unfortunately, I missed an auction selling a pair of water glass lamps which are the exact style that I need for the water glass.

I've collected other similar lamps but would gladly trade these or cash for the correct style of lamp.
Only broken fragments of the original cab lamp survived although it appears that it was quite similar to the Lovell No. 1185 or 1186 shown in the lower right of the attached.

Most of these lamps were commonly used on other makes of locomotives.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Dave
