The ones on Wilkesboro Road in Banks, Oregon are the only Hybrid bells I know of in this area.

You think your car gets bad mileage? SP 4449 consumes 10 gallons of bunker oil and 100 gallons of water every mile.

The former wigwag at Locan avenue in Sanger Ca.

When the motor and banner were stolen. the SJVR added a spider and lights to the original mast, and a hybrid bell.

sorry but that setup looks UGLY! Why doesn't the railroad actually take the time to install the crossbuck on the mast and make it look actually decent??

And 11th St... this one is a bit hard to see because it is on top of a cantilever. But it is a hybrid:

And here's what looks like another hybrid that was just posted on railpictures.net. Nice photo of this signal with 8 inch lights in New York.
