Re: Some flat sounding bells
Here is a clock-ticking bell on a crossing in Germany, sounds satisifying to me for some reason.

Re: Some flat sounding bells
Hard to tell, but it sounds like one of these WRRS motor bells sounds extremely flat.

And not only that, they're mechanical bells too.

The WCH e-bell here sounds a bit messed-up:

That's a CSX crossing too! I didn't realize they had crossings with continuously-ringing bells. Is that Michigan state law or something?

Re: Some flat sounding bells
I personally think so, as NS's crossings up there typically have the bells ring while the gates are down as well. Seems like Michigan requires every crossing signal to have a bell and for the bells to remain on until the crossing deactivates.ZachL wrote: Wed Jul 17, 2019 2:45 pmThat's a CSX crossing too!

Also, in terms of more flat bells, the least mechanical bell in Folkston (a WCH mechanical bell at Martin Street) sounds really bad now, and is probably about to die:
