Anyone ever seen these gate mechs and/or electronic(?) bell before? Found this strange crossing on the Nashville & Eastern while scouting out locations to try and catch trains at:

The counterweight arms and shape of the gate mechs almost remind me of signals in the Czech Republic.

Nope, I suggest you go and check out that crossing to see who made them.

That's my plan. Hopefully by the end of the month.

Its also worth pointing out that there is an dormant crossbuck here.

Prior to the installation, this was a crossbuck crossing.

Regarding the bell, I want to say RSI but I'm not sure as I can't find it anywhere on the internet.

Side note: am I the only one that thinks it looks like a steam whistle?

EDIT: The railroad seen here is the Nashville and Eastern Railroad and this is the Hickory Branch.

RSI e-bells looked noticeably different. It might've been an early version, but I'm not sure. But yea, it does look like a steam whistle.

I mentioned that in my post, though I didn't know the name of this part of the line was the Hickory Branch:

I suggest you go to that crossing some time! Looks like an interesting setup! Then we can see what equipment it actually has!

Just make sure you do your homework on researching how many trains run through the crossing so hopefully you can cash a train at the crossing.

2 trains a day according to the FRA, small chance there could be more.
