With a GS bell attached to it. :Eeeeek:
The bell on the back probably broke and the SJVR didn't want to fix it. At least it wasn't replaced!
The e-bell has been there for going on 6 years!

Check out the most recent update to that signal! This photo is from Dan's wigwag site.

There's another wigwag crossing in CA (IIRC) that has 8 inch lights on the masts of both wigwags.
They/Them for me, please.
