If water gets in them and freezes up they will also crack. The cat eye signs with the plastic reflectors had the same problem. The US&S cat eye crossbuck I have has the plastic reflectors, and a bunch are cracked because water got behind them and froze up.
OH GOD

need a tetanus shot just looking at thoese things

Total waste on the wind guard by the way. I thought for a moment I caught the signal in action, but then realized it is like that because of the wires above.

Those wind guards and a total wast anyway. They don't really do any good, if the gate is up, the wind will bend the gate right over the thing and in high winds when the gates go up, it could get caught on it.

There is a lot of Safetran Hybrids in my area, There is was to much!!! They are commonly seen on the CSX crossings on the Erie West Subdivision, There is a couple on the NS crossings.
Safetran Type 1 Electronic bells are my favorite type of electronic bells. Type 3 has somewhat of a trebled ping to it but with the Type 1, its very clear and realistic to a mechanical bell gets me every time why WC Hayes e bells sound like fire siren. Safetran Type 2 The fact that It sound CLOSER to a GSI bell and looks similar to it. GSI Bells are completely cheap( made from PVC pipe ) and they don't sound all that well and they are WAY too common. ASC E Bells, very rare you see those, but they sound and look pretty cool with the "snowcap" and not to mention GE Transportation, who's e bells sound like crap.
