The corner of 72nd Street and McKinley Avenue on the former MILW in Tacoma WA.

Prior to 2014 there were 4 (COUNT EM 4!) hybrid bells on this mega crossing. One bell seems to have met it's fate having been replaced by what appears to be a Safetran type 3 E-Bell

Welcome to the forum!

A bit off topic but those traffic signals are kind of interesting.

The bike lane ahead sign on the crossing signal is also kind of interesting.

The e-bell is a General Signals e-bell.

That's pretty common in Tacoma, WA, IIRC, or at least it was. They like(d) doing 12-8-8 signals. In fact, the 12-8-8-12-12 signals were common enough there that some people call them "Tacoma 5s", IIRC.
They/Them for me, please.

Thanks!

AFAIK I've only seen those traffic signals in Tacoma but i could've sworn that I saw a set of them north of Tacoma in the valley at one time.

Huh! Never knew they were nicknamed "Tacoma 5s"!

Good catch. Believe it or not, there's actually another crossing on that same road that's here on the site, too!
