Yes, it still works even after being shaken. When a signal is shaken, the hammer inside the mechanical bell moves around, striking the gong. This is how the mechanical bell operates even if it's not shaken.
@@Thatismagic. Indeed. In some cases, the signal maintainer may do the same thing to ensure the bell works properly. They wouldn't do that if it breaks when being shook.
@@Thatismagic.well on this crossing, the hammer inside got jammed causing it to not ring until a signal maintainer came along but yea for the most part shaking the crossings doesn’t do anything
yikes
huh?
???
Good railroad crossing, I wonder how they make railroad crossings
Me too.
I'm surprised you felt the need to do this since you'd filmed this crossing in action.
well, i've never shaken a railroad crossing before, and i wanted to try it out
(also i recorded this before i filmed it in action)
I dislike the new crossbuck design. I believe it's unnecessary for UP to replace existing crossbucks with that abomination.
Oh
You know shaking it makes the bell not work, my friend shook this crossing In particular and it wasn’t ringing for like 3 weeks
