*originally recorded on 1-27-18*

Signal on the left: 2 pairs of WCH 12x20 inch lights with WCH 2nd Generation LEDs, a Safetran gate mechanism, and NEG LED gate lights.
Signal on the right: 2 pairs of WCH 12x20 inch lights with WCH 2nd Generation LEDs, an unknown (shop-built?) electronic bell, a Safetran gate mechanism, and NEG LED gate lights.

This crossing is a modern one, but an interesting one. These signals appear to have been installed in mid to late 2012 by the Nashville & Eastern, but oddly enough, it has some kind of unknown e-bell that I suspect was shop-built. The bell sounds like it uses a low-quality recording of a WCH e-bell, interestingly enough, and it rings from start-up to when the gates lower and then again when the gates rise, but for some reason, it stays on a couple of seconds after the gates have lowered. If anyone knows who made this bell (if it wasn't a shop-built one), feel free to let me know.
