Familiar Clock Chime sounded on Railroad Crossing Bells

[MikeRXR]

Greetings,

Well yesterday I got my mystery bell in the mail. Mystery because I was not sure if it was going to be a Griswold or a RACO. It turned out to be a very old and heavy Griswold made of mostly cast iron with an aluminum back door and visor. Much of the wiring was cloth and it needed a cleaning. I have yet to restore the bell because the parts in this one look a little more complex to dis-assemble. Anyways, it turns out that the Griswold was just the bell I needed to be able to sound the famous Westminster clock chime! I think it would be pretty funny to set up a computer program or circuit board controller to ring these classic crossing bells in this order.. it would make one heck of a neat alarm clock and by the way, my job is actually directing music at a church in Detroit, so how fitting that I can get these railroad crossing bells to play music! lol
Enjoy!

Very interesting video there. Yes, it would be interesting to set them all off on separate timers.
