Sorta late reply, if I recall correctly there was a cab view video from the early 2000's that shows it, althought I can't seem to find it :( (It's probably somewhere on Youtube.)AJPlays3000 wrote: Mon Jul 28, 2025 7:47 am I’m wondering if there’s any footage of it this crossing at the time of having the safetran bell.

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Also a late reply, but I probably seem crazy that I care about footage so much (sorry for that), I’ll explain why later. Just a question, sorry for asking so much, you do have any idea who it’s by or who you think it’s by? I’ve found a vid by taitset without audio but it doesn’t show that crossing, other crossings on the same line are shown. I also found a vid from 2009 which seems good but that’s the year they got replaced. (Or 2008) The reason I care about footage so much is because I live kind of close to this area and knowing that a crossing so close had such a rare bell amazes me. I’ve also heard that the next crossing up the road, Devon road had a griswold bell, but I’m not really as interested in that.

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Well as it turns out, I misremembered - There were cab *photos* but not videos, so unfortunately I guess there may not be any video footage of it operating :(
I don't even know where to find said cab photo or who took it, otherwise I'd link it here.

Re: Australian Railroad Crossing Signals
Don’t know if anyone noticed this yet, but the WRRS mechs at Marshall Street,?Ivanhoe have now been replaced. Sadly, this crossing has now been completely ruined.

And in sour news to me, the Pakenham line is now LEVEL CROSSING FREE! Thank you so much Jacatina Allan and Daniel Andrews for completely destroying my line.

Metro, why do you keep removing Mechanical bells?!
