Do they still make Safetran Bells?

I know that Invensys Rail bought Safetran and the Siemens bought Invensys Rail but I was wondering if Siemens still makes Safetran Bells.

Safetran mechanical and "Type-1" e-bells are no longer produced. However, I am not sure if they still make "Type-2" or "Type-3" e-bells.

Aren't Safetran Type-2 bells kind of rare?

Actual Safetran Type 2s are. NEGs are just about a dime a dozen, especially on the CSX and UP. Other than a different base on a few of them, they are also exactly alike the Safetran Type 2s, AFAIK.

Siemens still makes the Safetran Type 3.

Is WCH the only one who still makes mechanical bells?

Yes. US&S sells WCH mechanical bells though, but I don't know if they still put their own logo on the backs of them like they did for a while.

Do the bells have different branding? It's sad that they are changing every mechanical bell.

That's sad. I wish Siemens could continue making Safetran Mechanical bells.
