Kinda surprised you only did one Safetran, given that they had two different generations of mechanical bell, lol. Nice video though! And congrats on 2k!
They actually aren’t generations. They are just the 5 inch and 4 inch versions. The 5 inch ones are the flat bases and the 4 inch ones have the slanted type. They used both models from the 70s into the 2000s.
@@upking9080 From what I've seen, no. The 4 inch base ones appear to have proceeded the 5 inch base ones (at the very least), and I haven't seen any evidence that they were sold alongside each other at any point.
@@upking9080 The 2nd Gens were already being made by the late-70s, IIRC, based on what I've observed. The 1st Gens don't seem to have been made much more than half a decade or so, give or take a few years.
I like Hybrid bells and Mechanical bells on CSX River line plus the E bells at Bogota by Cross street those old theres an E bell at CP10 Bergenfield Nj used to have a Mechanical bell now its an E bell Dumont Nj use to have Mechanical bell now E bell both crossing or 3 crossings in Dumont Nj Haworth Nj

The 5 inch base ones even have a piece cast into their bases to make it easier to mount them on a 4 inch mast.
Interesting. I’ve seen a photo of a Safetran bell in the 1970s with a 5 inch base, so I’m not sure what to think.
