Another WABCO Teardrop in Italy, though the bell sounds very flat, sadly:

Another pair of WABCO teardrop bells in Italy, with a pair of WABCO AL-70 "Triangle" gate mechs as well!


Looks like this is the crossing:

For Vintage Crossing Equipment, Italy has to be one of the best places in the world! If only I can see them for myself, maybe one day!

Two at this Italian crossing, though one is dead and the other is starting to die:


Also note the WRRS gate mechs with wooden gate arms and lantern gate lights!

Italy is a gold mine for vintage American Signals. They aren't so keen on replacing older equipment like us in the U.S.!

Here is a cool setup in Udine, Italy. The Bells look to be rather clean for their age!

Still there as of 2018, although the real question to ask if the bells were reused.
