The last US&S Teardrop of British Columbia is now history. Guess the only teardrops in my area are in my closet.

Two Italian Teardrops at this crossing on SP302 in Faenza, Italy:

Apparently it's been redone a bit since Street View came through, and the bells still sound rather healthy!


This nearby crossings also have some:
Via Guglielmo Oberdan:

Via Tomaso Dal Pozzo:

Found these bells while exploring Brazil. It's kinda hard to find any sort of signalization in that country since most crossings are gateless and the Brazil is quite large! :)

This one was is in the town of Magé in the State of Rio de Janeiro.

This one, located at the next crossing over, was sadly removed after 2012.

The small hamlet over, used to have a Teardrop before being replaced by WCH Bells later on.

Same story with the next Signal.

...and here.

There's two at that crossing:

Also, the rest of those shouldn't have been posted since they're now gone. Hence the thread title of "Locations of Currently Existing US&S TEARDROPS".

Do you know if they were made there, or if they were imported?

Sorry, I just thought that they were worth posting.

There is a Brazilian Company that manufactures Crossing Bells, Barriers, Lights and Gate Mechanisms. Some of the those products, such as the Bells, are made under liscence. At least that's what I gather from it.
