Well, Im a little confused. I looked up Safetran Systems on google and it wasnt there. It showed a company called Invensys Rail. Did Safetran change it's name? Is Safetran a part of Invensys Now? someone please tell me whats happening. There was a Crossing update in a suburb of Cleveland called Olmsted Falls and an update hapened on Columbia Road and the gate mechanisms say Invensys now. I dont even think you could call the Safetran type 3 a Safetran type 3. We should now call it the Invensys Rail Bell. I think we should what do you think? AND please tell me what happened to Safetran!!!!
ALSO, I went on the 102 page on the RR Crossing website to look at Safetran bells and i looked at the Safetran type 2 brouchure and it took me to Invensys Rail.

Re: Safetran to Invensys?
I'm not sure how accurate it is, but according to Wikipedia's article on Safetran, it says:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safetran
EDIT: I also took a look on their website at what companies are owned by Invensys Rail Systems and it lists Safetran as one of the three.
Then again, Wikipedia is not the most reliable website for information, but here is a link to the article anyways:Safetran is currently part of Invensys Rail Systems.

They/Them for me, please.

It's been a little while, but we had talked about this one before on several occasions:

Re: Safetran to Invensys?
Does anyone know if they're still making railroad crossing signal equipment after Siemens bought out Invensys? Sorry for getting off-topic.

I think from what I have heard, they don't anymore. This sucks because safetran was my favorite signal maker.0333 wrote:Does anyone know if they're still making railroad crossing signal equipment after Siemens bought out Invensys? Sorry for getting off-topic.

North American gate mech with a British fence gate looks weird.
