  1. That’s a mighty nice looking switcher. I have never seen bells like that before, the unit behind has the same bell too. Maybe they are not bells but gizmos for yard control units.

  2. Those gizmos would be electric or electronic controlled bells.

  3. Even on the newer engines they are replacing a lot of the older style bells with the electronic ones :(

  4. For the record I hate that electronic bell ringer garbage.

    Do they still use this little “critter”?

  5. Retired in 2012 and most likely scrapped :(
