The one on the 12x24 inch signal definitely was, but the one on the 8 inch signal might be original.NathanFromEngland wrote:Still there as of 2018, although the real question to ask if the bells were reused.freebrickproductions wrote:Rice Street, Latta, SC:

I agree. The paint jobs further back your thoughts, too.freebrickproductions wrote:The one on the 12x24 inch signal definitely was, but the one on the 8 inch signal might be original.NathanFromEngland wrote:Still there as of 2018, although the real question to ask if the bells were reused.freebrickproductions wrote:Rice Street, Latta, SC:

These Signals will always top the cheap, newer stuff Railroads are buying these days. These Older Signals were truly built to last!freebrickproductions wrote:Here's a pair of WABCO(?) Teardrops in Turin, Italy:

However, I'm not entirely sure if they are WABCO, as the branding on the signal bases and bells appears to be somewhat different.
Per this video, one of them appears to be dead while the other is starting to sound a bit rough, sadly:
Interestingly enough though, the lights are of similar design to the GRS XB/XD lights, though they appear to be based off of a US&S 8 inch light. They honestly kinda remind me of those McK&H lights that McK&H Aust. (the user on here) filmed last year, only with the rear lights still attached:
