Location of the rectangular e-bells
This is based off a topic from the old forum, but which crossings have this e-bell that looks like a GS e-bell but is rectangular instead of cylindrical. Seems there were a few in Louisiana, but I know for sure there is one out in the middle of nowhere in Nebraska 20 miles east of Thedford where Spur 86B crossing the BNSF main that parallels NE 2.

I speak my mind, if you don't like that oh well. I'll have you fill out a hurt feelings report and submit that to my office.

If you take the first link and look on the other side of the signal w/the rectangular bell, there are mismatched light heads!!CIC755 wrote:These parts of Louisiana better for you?TRAINMANKIGHT wrote:OH THAT LOOKS LIKE A LOVELY AREA ID WANT TO VISTCIC755 wrote:Managed to find one in Baton Rouge, LA:

Re: Location of the rectangular e-bells
The crossing just to the west of that one also has one of those too.
Re: Location of the rectangular e-bells
Managed to get out to the crossing with a rectangular E-bell near Halsey, Nebraska, and catch it in action - the sound was nearly identical to that of a GS-1 e-bell. I have a low quality (very shaky) video I might get posted someday.
