That bell has now since sadly been replaced by a Safetran Type 3 E-Bell.

That bell replaced a WCH E-Bell, which had lost the cap on it, this had lead rainwater to build up inside the bell and caused the bell to die IMO.

still rather interesting that they replaced it with a safetran type-one and not a gs e-bell or even another wch electronic bell.
