A return trip to the crossing on 8-15-23 by freebrickproductions finds that the remaining General Signals e-bell on the northern signal here has been replaced by an NEG electronic bell.

 

The gate arms were also replaced with vertically-striped ones and all of the gate lights here are now NEG LEDs, though it wasn't immediately noticed at the time.
