Mike's Railroad Crossing Forum

This e bell was found on what looks to be KCS in OK and sounds like a slow Safetran type 3 e bell, but looks like a WCH. It's blurry at the end but you can see it.

Ah yes the unknown WCH mimicks. Now this bell stands as the Railroad Crossing mystery of America. Im going to estimate it could be from safetran or ASC...who knows.

CSX has been installing them around here lately too

Figured out that this bell is made by GE Transportation Systems

Yah spread the word when we don't even know if that's true
Caltrain you figured this out from what/whom...

Take a look. If you look at the bell it says GETS on the side.

Wow surprised, lets see if these things self destruct like their engines do

Well if it is truely made by GE... then it would be holding up to their standards then.
