NP passenger Fs

Do any of the original Northern Pacific passenger F units still exist? I know there is at least one of the freight units, but don't know if any of the passenger units survived (A or B units).

I think there is an F unit in the Spokane collection painted Lowey green. Can anyone out there confirm?

It is there (photo below). The unit is an F-9A, but I don't know about its actual history.

Isn't there an ex-NP FT unit still down in Mexico?
