The second signal.
It has another Modern Industries base.

 

Sadly, I somehow managed to forget to get close-ups of the emegency information, lights, and bell on this signal.

If I recall correclty, the lights were all Federal Signal 8 inch lights, and the bell is an NEG electronic bell mounted in front of the crossbuck.

Due to the NEG e-bell's unusual placement, it can be seen a bit more closely in the action shots below.
