Signal on the left: 4 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch lights and a Safetran mechanical bell.
Signal on the right: 5 pairs of Safetran 12x24 inch lights and a dead RACO mechanical bell.

I went back to this crossing again to see how the RACO bell was holding up. It's not holding up too well unfortunately and it is even worse than last time as it only clicked while the signals were active this time around.

This video of the crossing was also recorded exactly two years after I got it in action on video the first time!

I'm still amazed there are no gates at that crossing with the volume of traffic and the speed of the trains.

Same here.
