Louis Stout got tired of writing all those Ts so he had his own 
convention.  Bb horn fingerings were written above the line of music, F horn 
fingerings below.  String your thumb valve as you wish!
    I had just a couple of young students over the years who only had a single 
Bb horn.  The thing I found with them was that all the beginner books had F 
horn fingerings written into the music.  I had to cross them out, really 
obliterate them, because otherwise they would play that fingering no matter how 
many times I explained it!
