I can't beleive I'm saying this, but I found one in Chicago!

Only two that I'm aware of.

One at this crossing in Jesup, IA.

This one in Galena, IL. Hard to say how much longer she'll stay in service, if she hasn't been taken out already.

Looks like both bells are teardrops. Kind of on odd way they are mounted though.

Those aren't teardrops...but likely Safetran, RACO, or Griswold...

I love it when you get Street View in the really high-quality images like in that first one. Somebody should try to get those crossings on video before they get upgraded.

What is the point of that gate going down towards the track? I guess to keep cars from turning right?

Here's two more teardrops. I'm pretty sure these are still active.
