Have you thought about using google maps to find any wabco bells? That or you can try looking at the California section of this site?

There's also at least one location that was posted in this thread earlier. You'll have to go back at least a few pages.

Also, you can do what Nascar Fan007 said.
They/Them for me, please.

I think you meant "Henderson, NC"? Because Hendersonville NC doesn't have any WABCO mechanical bells.

I was doing something else where I was trying to find Madisonville but kept entering Madison. Now I'm trying to hard to remember -ville that I made the opposite mistake.
Also, it clearly wasn't the location in the link so how did you end up looking up Hendersonville?

I went to Hendersonville, NC recently and all what I could find in that area was the Blue Ridge Southern Railroad with railroad crossings that were installed by NS. And no, I didn't find a single WABCO mechanical bell in Hendersonville, NC, not even anywhere outside of it as well.
