Main Street crossing I ran to in this video to get the fire dept responding.It's the one with the cantilevers.Hard to hear the E bell,though.E bell is on the mast signal on the other side of the crossing.

I heard both just fine.

Anyway, as most know, no e-bells in sight near me, so everything's mechanical.

GE used some really cheap paint on the ATSF warbonnets, many people think it is BNAF, but the warbonnet GP60M's and SD75's paint is holding up well.
