if it is it really sucks!!!!!!!!!!! lot of classic equiptment on that line.

Yea, though if it were still in service, I'm betting a lot of that classic stuff would be gone, or it would rarely see trains.

Neither of those are mini-bells. The first is a WCH mechanical bell, and the second is a Modern Industries mechanical bell.

That appears to be a 1st Generation WCH mechanical bell.

Noticed that GSV has been updated and sadly those mini bells have been removed. The two bells on the median signals were replaced with pole caps, while the third one was replaced by a GS e-bell.

I wonder if that GS E-Bell might be this bell, until it was replaced sometime in late-2013 or 2014 with a WRRS bell.

There is also a video of the mini-bells in action, but the General Signals E-Bell is dead.

Interesting find there, I think the most recent e-bell has a fresher paint job so they are probably not the same. Wonder if the crossing originally had four mini bells? It's interesting that they bothered to remove the bells on the median signals and install pole caps, rather than disconnecting and leaving them in place.

Almost undoubtedly did. I believe Michigan required every signal at a crossing to have a bell.
