I posted about that crossing last year, rural areas of Northern California are a great spot to discover US&S teardrops or other old equipment considering UP think its too hot to replace the old classics.dan the ca railfan wrote:i know that the two teardrop bells on road 93b in zamora ,ca have ben in this forum a couple of times however i believe the left teardrop in a 1st generation one!!!!

Also, Street View shows they're still there as of December 2016, but the fate of the bells right now are currently unknown.
