It's mechanical bells that bring a sense of beauty to railroad crossings, as they've got a classic sound that people can recognize, and sometimes are even easier to hear than electronic bells, but someday, the last mechanical bell will be removed from commercial service. It is that day, that all signal-fans around the globe will come together and retaliate with what will be known as, "The Railroad Re𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗹ion", to avenge our fallen electromagnetic friends being replaced by railroads too lazy to actually maintain them.

the yard switchers at 13:10 were in a hurry a guess and nice horn around 15:12

Like the first one, I miss those type of level crossings that had Mechanical bells and the tall relay box that the gate was connected to

Great video/compilation! Love all mechanical bells featured here, especially the classics! Those ones on the Napa really give me good memories of when Metrolink had a ton of Safetran mechanical bells!

I miss the old days when all bells were “real”

Nice Video! Mechanical bells rule!

Great compilation! Gotta love those classic mechanical bells!

I love when crossings have a whole mess of mechanical bells, it's a sound you don't hear very much anymore, especially on Class 1s

6:35 also I like this one.

The crossings that have more than 2 are the best.

Great shots there mate!

Nice one

Great video and trains also horns crossings too

The 1st one sounded fucking amazing.

7:41 I like this one bells ring faster

nice catch

4:10 I like this one

Hey!, Today Is My Birthday!

Nice

Awesome

20:06 they’ll have to fix the railroad crossing lights and the gates

Great

Oh I’m too familiar with the mechanical bells. I think it’s better than the current fake e-bells.

3:38 Amtrak f59 locomotive that still runs but I have a feeling that more similar units like this including the f59phi locomotives as well (I think)

How many bells were at the crossing at 1:36?

Awesome
