Older or Newer Style Railroad Crossing Signals.

[Swedish Crossings]

Long Island Railroad also seems to only use mechanical bells as far as i have seen!

[ToledoRailfan]

Newer all the way! All "old style" signals need to be scrapped!

I've found three crossings on Google Street View on the LIRR with General Signals e-bells.

Anyway.
I don't see a difference between newer or older, i like both.

I like both, although I do prefer older signals. I actually quite like crossings with a mixture of old and new equipment, but it's nice to have variety.

Generally, that's the way I feel. Though there are some tasteful new installs, there are also junky-looking ones.

I say both, because the new ones have cool equipment, but standing under a WCH ebell waiting for an Amtrak can get pretty boring. Older ones are cool because of the rarity of the equipment but mechanical bells usually go bad, so I'm tied.
