The main

are thankfully still incandescent.

2010s.

The WCH
Mechanical Bell seen in picture 8 was replaced with a GS Electronic

how new it looks. |

The
gate on the southern signal now features the vertical striping. The
gate lights still retain the older 4 inch incandescent gate lights. I
suspect these gate lights were possibly sold by WABCO, or Truck-Lite.

The GS
