Model Railroading > Odd Request- But what the heck...Date: 10/25/20 12:05 Odd Request- But what the heck... Author: BoilingMan I'm looking for the carbody vents for an F9A.
Did anyone ever built a Highliners A unit, but built it as an F2 thru F7 and never used the later vents? If worse comes to worst I'll have to find the whole kit to get these vents, but before I drop 80 bucks I figured- What the heck- maybe someone has some in their parts bin... Thanks! SR Below is the style vent/louver I'm looking for- on the panel beside the porthole windows  Date: 10/25/20 12:28 Re: Odd Request- But what the heck... Author: PHall You could try here https://highlinersonline.com You can buy individual parts spues. Item 3111 is probably what you want.

The distant shorter bell is likely hidden behind the closer one. Probably sounds lousy.

You end up with the same bells as was used on a RS-3L. > FiveChime Wrote: > -------------------------------------------------- > ----- > > That locomotive horn must of sounded great as > it > > appears to be one part of what was normally a > muli > > chime horn.....it must of sounded terrible! > > > > Regards, Jim Evans |
