    In Seymour there are second generation Westinghouse hybrid bells both with different gong sounds. The hybrid bells on the school house lane crossing sound close to a Westinghouse tear drop bell

    Awesome video, it's really good you've filmed a lot of these bells. It's really sad that we mostly have way too many Safetran Type 3's in Victoria as well as General Signals Type 2's and it sucks that the hybrid bells are slowly disappearing and that other mechanical bells are getting rare.
