Hey,

I noticed on ebay today a Bryant Zinc Co Bell (much like the WRRS large bell). this one you can tell was mounted to a crossing with U-bolts like you see on some of the older cantelevers and might be a little harder to display (unless you build a standing pipe and base to mount it to) Anyways, this is an older one you do not see so often so thought I would draw attention to it, I have no idea who the seller is. Good Luck!

That almost looks like to me like a bell that may have been mounted to a locomotive at one time. Such as this one: http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=274100
