I thought WCH E-Bells are common on BNSF and UP installations?

Ain't the first WCH e-bell that's been found on a BNSF line:

There's also one in Berwin, IL on the BNSF Racetrack:

Only UP, really. BNSF has always been a bigger fan of General Signals, with a brief stint with Safetran (and WCH, apparently).

You could also be thinking of CP, which uses a lot of WCH e-bells.

Doesn't BNSF have a lot of Safetran Type-1s? Maybe I got them mixed up with WCH E-Bells.

They have a few. Not sure how they compare to other railroads though.

I guess I've always associated them with the sound of WCH E-bells which I've always associated with being from out west.

Your link just links to the map.

Kind of unusual! Sense the platform is so close to the crossing a normal pedestrian gate wouldn't work.

Should work now in my (original) post. Apparently I had hit the apostrophe key when hitting the enter key, and it caused the forum's software to think that the apostrophe was part of the link, which caused Google Maps to send you to the map rather than street view as it didn't expect the apostrophe.

I don't think I've seen a triangle arm on a pedestrian gate before.

Ah. I would think that would just cause the link not to work but I don't much about that stuff.
