A look at the two gateless 8" signals at the crossing. The light frames are 8" Safetran incandescents with a WCH mechanical bell apiece. I don't know why a few visors are missing from the signals however. |

Track view. |
One of two WCH mechanical bells. |
This crossing is at 11 Commercial St. |
Note in the pictures how the 8" lights between the tracks don't have the visors. I wonder why this was done? |

According to Wilek209, this crossing was created in 1997, and remains almost unchanged. When the signals went up, both signals had Safetran mechanical bells. Sometime in 2002, they changed to WCH mechanical bells that are still here Today.
Pictures 1-6 were taken on September 10, 2009. Picture 7 was taken on April 29, 2009.
A return visit on January 28, 2010 shows the two WCH mechanical bells replaced by two WCH electronic bells. Both mechanical bells failed in early January, 2010, and that's why they were replaced. |
