I have a colleague who owns four port hole windows from a scrapped BAR F3A, probably #46. These are complete with original gaskets and seal rings. One is cracked, but three are perfect.

If your group is restoring an F unit, these are probably not available elsewhere. Buyer would have to pay the shipping. Make a generous offer, as my friend needs to make renovations to his home, to care for a handicapped wife.

Contact me via PM.

Of course 46 was saved and is still around. But all the portholes were gone when the ARHS purchased it.

Then it wasn't from 46. These were collected as the locomotive was being cut up. That being said, they are still available.

PM sent.

I have sent all inquiries to the owner of the port hole windows.
He would like $800 for the four.

Thanks!

Did your friend end up selling these F-3A port hole windows?

Thanks,

Dan

I'm guessing they are sold (but would like to know for sure) because the seller never contacted me even though I was willing to buy all 4 as a set - which I believe was his preference. Still am willing.

If you're still looking for F-unit portholes, we have three frames (one is painted orange), a package of four NOS gaskets and five pieces of original of glazing.
