Remove the 's' from 'https' and it should work.

As already stated, most crossings in Australia use 8 inch lights. Despite the age of the lights at this crossing, they're still pretty easy to see.

But the one thing that doesn't belong on this crossing are the e-bells. :No1:

This was a really nice crossing, but Metro 'had' to ruin it with crappy e-bells! Why can't they leave mechanical bells alone?! :Curse1:

The lenses and reflectors are probably kept in great shape.

Did the mechanical bell that was previously there die?

No, both the Teardrop bell and the Westinghouse Hybrid Bell were still in a good working condition.

I didn't expect McK&H to be making their lights with metal backgrounds and visors. The present day ones are made out of plastic!
