Those ASC bells sounded like WC Hayes but not in a sour tone that they have. The teardrops were amazing as always
The only sad part is the twin teardrops on ione road were both replaced with a gs and wch e bells
@@Irish2007 ….wonderful…. 😕
@@BBT609 the bright side is the sister crossing on that same road still has its tear drops so idk what made them want to replace these
@@Irish2007 🎃
You’re filming all the crossings I used to try and catch 15 years ago (except I didn’t have an iPhone to record with), back when Woodward Rd (and Austin Rd for that matter) crossing was still mechanical bells. And seeing the hyper speed bell at Arthur Rd still going is amazing; it was running warped speed even back then.
If you put it into the perspective of a fire alarm hobbyist/enthusiast, the mechanical bells are single-stroke and coded as continuous/steady
I really miss the mechanical bells. Most of them in my region are gone. It’s one of those things I never thought much about until they were gone.
Especially the teardrops
Real
The crossing signal at 30:08 has too short of a delay in gates going down, during initial activation. It should be at least 3 seconds of warning before lowering gates.
That crossing has been replaced fully with new signals now but the same gated masts holding the mechanisms. I haven't seen it active yet as so far each time I came the line is having shutdowns. First the whole route was dead because wildfires took out some bridges and then tried again today and the section of the line that this crossing is on was shut down for some reason.
LIRR crossing a be like
Da😊
Cool train
Great video!
I like the US&S teardrop bell
6:00 that train bell kinda sounds like an Argentina crossing bell, neat
Nice compilation!
3:58 caught me off guard as distillate of nostalgia growing up in NH at a condo directly adjacent to where the local scenic railroad turns around
good times
Nice catch of this train 16:02
I love uncommon e bells
Awesome
I miss those old bells! I hate the new ebells
0:06 cough activation
Really nice video!!!!
9:24 S. Airport Way, Stockton, CA: Dual Safetran Type I Electronic Bell
For the WCH E Bell type 1 is that sound just a compression problem or just from old age?
It was made with that scratchy sound that's why the WCH Type 1.5 replaced it.
Love it
6:26 metra has a ton of thoes high pitched ebells on the Milwaukee district west and north line
28:32 I truly miss that Griswold Mechanical Crossing Bell on the opposite side, it’s a pity it died and got replaced by a GS type 3 bell
Odd how the bells out West just ring the entire time. Here around TN GA AL ours just stop ringing when gates go down
up north it goes the whole time
Nice Catch
It's also quite uncommon to hear a Nathan P5 horn on an Amtrak California cab car
This is great, you should also turn it into a "which is your favorite crossing" (vote) video! Too many for me to vote on one!
In Santa Cruz highway 1 There was a mechanical bell on the opposite side that died which it sucks. it got replaced with the newest gs e bells which is know to be named General signals type 3 17:31
@ 2:06... Cathedral sounding bells!!
These are the kind of bells I never hear
14:02 GS type 1 and High Pitch Siemens bell combo
I was always looking for the Ferrari ranch one I
4:00 WELL SOMEONE LISTEND TO THE LIGHTS
18:55 Which bell has the very rapid ding-ding-ding? I think this is the type Hollywood recorded for use as a sound effect in the 1930s, for decades in scenes which are set aboard a passenger train we hear the frantic bell with a pronounced doppler shift as it passes by two or three times per minute.
It’s the RACO bell, they are mainly fast
What is the top 5 rarest bells
At 20th Street in Sacramento, that dumb was literally had to park right in front of the cross buck.
0:17 UP Valley Subdivision
2:06 how come the e-bell sounds so bad? The crossing with a WCH E-bell near my house sounds so much better. (just asking)
WCH Type 1 E-Bell.
The newer bells don't even sound like a bell more like a gong or something close to a gong
20:44 that nema with a powr bracket lens 😂
bro, yall have crossings in the city with csx trains...? In my city alway we have pass by is passenger trains and the csx trains are always in the middle of nowhere 😭
How are WRRS bells "uncommon" just a question. But good video!
Because most have been replaced in this era and to add to that on the West Coast they are pretty uncommon to find unless you are on a shoreline railroad and there barely some even on the shoreline railroads.
36:17 UP SD-70ace T4
0:05 that gs type 1 sounds like an ASC
2 wch type 1 e-bells on a crossing is one of the most annoying sounds of railfanning
The gs type 1 sounds higher pitched
14:31 sounds like metrolink Rialto station
Mechanical bells > electronic bells. And always will be.
Are there aes bells still there?
Yes.
@@MobileRailSpotterRxR ok thanks
High-tone Safetran type 3 bells are rare?
Nowadays no because transit companies are starting to use them more from Siemens.
@@MobileRailSpotterRxR there are a lot of those bells near me
15:25 is that what i think it is? #mustangmache
Lol this is the only comment without a heart
