The first one looks more like an McK&H Teardrop!

I wonder who the company who makes the teardrops are, it's not WABCO, and surely it can't be McKenzie and Holland. I wonder if they're Westinghouse?

A few more on the same line.

This one was replaced with a WCH mechanical bell for some reason. The other replacements just consist of motorized mechanical bells.

A nice confirmation that it's still at the crossing.

Greenfield Village, Dearborn, MI:

Can be heard operating in the second clip in this video:

Fountain Rock Road near Walkersville, MD got one. Replaced a WCH M Bell.

(Someone did a video on them replacing it)

Awesome!

The crossing wasn't signalized when Google Street View last went through:

That's why I abstained from pointing out this crossing until I knew I was 100% correct on it.

Potentially one still here in Stanley, NC

(Used to be one here in Comer, GA until recently when a NEG E Bell took its place)

Knew that was CSX crossing right away because of the NEG bell sadly it probably died or else the whole crossing would have been upgraded. CSXT wouldn't usually just change out a bell for no reason
