When I have a severely rusted bell, I get them sandblasted and repainted. On the bell I fully restored, the pitch did slightly change, but the sound was richer.
Fantastic video nice collection I have yet to find me a decent WCH mechanical Bell and a WRRS mechanical Bell and a us&s mechanical Bell nice collection
to be E-bells or speaker bells are a bit weird to me, I just find mechanical ones to be cooler, as they make a unique sound compared to the E-bells / speaker bells
Very nice collection my dude!! Have you been able to get the wing nut off the teardrop bell yet? I've restored two of them before and I know my way around working on these kind of bells. Yes wd-40 or PB Blaster would work but here's a tip, tight the wing nut to close the door, take a wire brush to clean the threads, lubricate the threads, and see if it unscrews easier. If not, try heating up the wing nut with a torch if you have one. I be happy to help you out with any other problems if you need any additional advice or help.
Thank you! No I have not, though I have somebody already willing to restore this bell for me, and I should have sent off whenever I get my AdSense working. Thanks for the offer though!
@@kyleb06 ah okay! Also thats cool that you got the one with the pat date. The two I own do not. Ones black and the others silver. Im so late making a video on them too 😵
Nice bells and video. I was wondering I'm trying to get some new parts for my safetran signals and I can't find where to go and can't find it on seimens website. Could you give me a link to any brand new safetran arms brackets and lights?

Flandox Here is a list: -eBay -Antique Shops -Markets (country markets can have some rare stuff) -Craigslist -As the person above me said, try asking a worker who is replacing a bell to see if they can give it to you Good luck!

Dude you have a awesome collection!!!!!! I wished I’d had a collection like that! And it’s confusing that GE make their e bells circuit sideways
Thanks!
Wow great collection mate! I just got my first bell, a 1st gen Westinghouse Hybrid.
Thanks! Nice!
Gametrain Productions cool! I have 2 bells, a Western Cullen Hayes 1st generation and a 3rd generation teardrop.
Great collection, shame your WRRS bell and US&S teardrop don't work
Thanks!

@@TWIGYBNSF Lol and RIP. IIRC the patent date ones are the 3rd Gens but I could be wrong.
@@kyleb06 do you have a maintenance book on a teardrop bell? I have pdf copies of the official one.
@@TWIGYBNSF No I do not.
The Westinghouse hybrid you have is a 2nd gen
Yep.
Dude your collection is amazing how did you get these bells because I can’t buy bells because they aren’t ever on sale. At least for me.
Thank you! Ebay mostly.
Wow great collection!, But on 2:10 why is there so many orbs?
Thanks!

Use a lot of force on the us&s terdropbell
10:22 WCH bell.EXE has had a mental breakdown and stopped working. Please try again in a few minutes. Shutting down…
Lol
Do you intend on fixing the broken 2 bells?
No
@@kyleb06 that's unfortunate... it's a shame the WRRS bell arrived that damaged, they're nice bells
I love all your bells, Where do you get these
Thanks! All of these so far have came from ebay, but there are other ways to get bells.
Where else can you get these
Another way to get railroad crossing bells are giving permission when someone are replacing railroad crossing bells at a railroad crossing!
Flandox Here is a list:
-eBay
-Antique Shops
-Markets (country markets can have some rare stuff)
-Craigslist
-As the person above me said, try asking a worker who is replacing a bell to see if they can give it to you

Where did you get the Westinghouse Hybrid Bell
VR Workshops in Seymour, VIC
