Wow, whoever maintains that line is also keeping them well-painted! Sadly, the black-painted ACL bells that still exist in Tampa are all faded.

There's one WABCO Bell in 6th & Empire St. I have recorded it. This crossing used to have 2 WABCO Bells in 2007-2011 but then It got replaced to a Safetran Mechanical Bell. The 1 WABCO Bell is still here and it still rings. This crossing has 5 mechanical bells and Union Pacific Railroad owns this crossing



(The tour of the crossing)

Posted on literally the last page already:
viewtopic.php?f=17&t=4133&start=40#p39493

Also, the URL brackets work like this:

Code: Select all

[url=<LINK>]SAMPLE TEXT.[/url]
Or like this:

Code: Select all

[url]<LINK>[/url]

For example, this:

Code: Select all

[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejEZCrue8tY]My Safetran Bell.[/url]
Produces this:
My Safetran Bell.


And this:

Code: Select all

[url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejEZCrue8tY[/url]
Produces this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejEZCrue8tY


However, the second one isn't necessary as the forum's software already parses plain-text URLs, like so:

Code: Select all

Sample URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejEZCrue8tY
Sample URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejEZCrue8tY
They/Them for me, please.

Here is a WABCO mechanical bell on a crossing in Scoresby, Victoria. Sadly this bell does not work.

The lights are almost in sync with the Safetran bell!

Pretty sure they're all gone, so they wouldn't fit this thread. Also...
That's not a WABCO bell to begin with.
They/Them for me, please.
