My own observations
NB!
Please be critical towards the information about the section with the advantages of simple lights. I couldn't find any distinct information about this but at least, it's pretty obvious why they were installed
A special thanks to UK Level Crossings & Trains Channel for inspiration to this project

Dutch e-bells sound so good
Mmm startin to learn about the swedish crossing and i often came to sweden at ystad. And i LOVE to see the trains passing by.
3:14 It would be so cool if the installers could alter the pitch of these to a degree so every crossing has its own unique sound. Still the best KLD imitation E-Bell out there.
7:32 I love the Dutch E bells, the sound is so clean
Very interesting video, swedish crossings are beautiful! In my country every crossing is equipped with both lights and sounds, but the bell type depends on the barrier boxes type. Modern crossings are always equipped with TM2000 or TD 96/2 boxes, with e-bells and always in full-barriers crossings. Old FS64/FS88-equipped level crossings (the italian RR crossings community favorites) with mechanical bells still exist, but they are rarer than the others, especially because they're being replaced with newer boxes as also half-barriers and unguarded crossings are, due to "their lack of security", but the fact is that people are impatient and cross the tracks because the gates remain closed for too long (from 2, even up to 20/30 minutes in rarer cases!). Here level crossings are considered a big problem for traffic and security and the general trend is therefore towards the elimination of level crossings and replacing them with overpasses or underpasses and this make me sad :(
but luckily there are still many and enough time to film most of them!
Thanks for the video.
Greetings from italy! 🇮🇹

4:25 very rare!
nice video
3:41 fun fact
One x2000 set came to United States for the northeast corridor on Amtrak and it tilt on any track compared to the German ice 1 that didn't tilted, and made tour all over the united States and Canada
X2000 was actually tested in Norway, Germany and Australia too but only one single train was sold, and it was to Guangshen Railway Company Ltd in China
Nice video!
very helpful
Interesting to see the different types of crossings that another country has
(In the country where I live, there are 4 main types of crossing: Full Barrier Level Crossings, Automatic Half Barrier Level Crossings, Automatic Open Level Crossings, and User Worked Level Crossings
brief explanations:
Full barrier crossings are interlocked with the signalling system, which means you often have to wait 4 mins for the train
Automatic half barrier crossings have a minimum warning of 27 seconds
Automatic open crossings have a white light to tell the train driver when the crossing has activated (and some have a red light to tell them when it has NOT activated)
User worked crossings often, but not always, have a set of red and green warning lights, the green light MUST be lit before you cross, and if no lights are lit you have to call the crossing operator, at crossings without a warning system you have to check for trains yourself before crossing
Thank you, a reason to make this was to give my subscribers and others who watch videos of Swedish level crossings answers to their questions
I guess your’e from Britain or Ireland btw
I'm actually from the usa
7:41 why duch Netherland bells?
Please check my answer to Dutchwolf26
7:01 They actually changed the sound in Halmstad. Wonder why.
Very nice video...but why there are so many crossings with only lights, when they install lights why they do not install a bell? In our country it do not even exist (except for only cross and and manual barrier).
Absence of bells means less maintenance and energy consumption, so it’s a matter of cost. Nowadays however, such crossings are no longer built since they’re no longer considered safe enough
@@mansnylind-alevelcrossings6033 Thanks. I wish you had already reached 1000 subscribers by the end of the month.
Bra video
Kul att höra, tack!
@@mansnylind-alevelcrossings6033 Du borde lämna in lite kommentarer på mina videos
0:07: Sound reminds me at the Trainz's default electric locomotrive engine sound.
7:38: Netherlands e-bell
EBA NOT E-BELL
@@mr.c15_gamla_kanal EBA bell? No idea. What's more, a moment ago I put EBA Bell on Google, and since I live in a country that is not the US, I get something else instead of the bell. I don't know exactly what the initials of the brand mean.
7:40 it sounds like a Dutch level crossing
👍👌
Nice work
Do you know Bengtsfors?
Did you poster a swedich version of this?
Yes
7:40 why the railroad crossing have netherland sound
I’ve already mentioned that, please check my answer to Dutchwolf26’s comment
Väldigt bra video, har du något tips på var man kan läsa mer om svensk infrastruktur och dylikt (Jag blivit rätt intresserad av det på sistående) :)
¡NB! I like platform and only sound
4:02 I hear a bell because I have very far hearing
Are you working on part 2
The Swedish version is almost complete
why do some of them have dutch bells?
I don’t really know but I think they wanted an e-bell for the platform crossings sounding more similar to the for this crossing type standard fire alarm bells
4:51 where is the crossing at?
Stora Kattnäs, Södertälje:

It feels so weird to hear the level crossing at 7:32 have the sounds of those from the Netherlands.
But IMO the best level crossings in Sweden are the ones with the classic bells. i think Trainz 2006 had them.
4:02 Light only? I hear a bell?
There is another crossing nearby, which coincidentally has only bells and no lights:

@@mansnylind-alevelcrossings6033 Ok
sorry for saying: i readied in the title swedisch level crossing. whitch flag do i see Correct the UK. and not sweden :)
readed
It’s to indicate that’s the English version. The Swedish original has a Swedish flag
Oh OK thanks
2:20 The e ball sound like Norway
It’s the same bell type, dutch Vialis EBA with modified sound
That,s right
EBA not E BALL
5:12 where is it?
South of Uppsala
@@mansnylind-alevelcrossings6033 It's probably fake because I can't find it.
@@mr.c15_gamla_kanal maps.app.goo.gl/UQvVFi6AAKZJXTca8?g_st=ic
You’re welcome!
7:41 Level crossing sound stold from dutch
It’s not stolen. That’s just standard E bells it’s used in many other countries.
@@aggewijk4114 i didin't know that
Why does the thumbnail have a British flag, when it’s not even UK?
It’s to indicate that this is the English version, the Swedish original has a Swedish flag
Understandable, have a great day
7:33 sound like a Dutch crossing
It has Vialis EBA E-bells, same as in the Netherlands
@@mansnylind-alevelcrossings6033 can you explain why could they use a bell from Netherlands?
@@Extremelybadpiggies I guess they wanted an E-bell sounding more like the “school bells” usually installed at platform crossings
@@mansnylind-alevelcrossings6033 how dare they could copy the Dutch bells
@@Extremelybadpiggies They bought bells of a type already available on the market, I see nothing wrong with that
5:55 POSSUM.
Why britain flag
It’s to indicate that’s the English version, the Swedish original has a Swedish flag
IS NOT A FIRE DRILL IS RAILL CROSSING
