I was lucky to get mine from a locomotive scrap yard / recycling yard from a guy I knew there. Most people don’t have this option tho, so always keep a lookout on Ebay or try looking at locomotive forms, train horn and bell forms and you could even try Facebook market place or craigslist if you wanted. I was in your position a while ago and really wanted to know where these people found them! So never give up, and always be determined to be on the lookout and soon enough you should have good luck finding one!
Idk if if it's AC or DC powered (I'll have to check) but if you literally buy a two prong female cable and strip the rubber a bit, it works just fine. If the voltage is too low the Bell will make a stuttering noise.
+Kyle Best I would leave the female end alone and strip the outlet end if youre trying to direct wire it. I have mine set so I just plug it into the cigarette lighter like charging a phone.
Kyle Best I use the same cord thats in the video. All you do is buy an inverter that plugs into your car's cigarette lighter. Then just plug it in like you would do a normal outlet and it will ring. Unplug it when you want it to stop. You can also buy a switch so that you can keep it plugged in.
Except for then they, you know, *stop working due to the cold or moisture in the airline* . Brass bells are appropriate for museums, not active locomotives.
@@aubergm3p583 These E Bells run on DC. Using straight AC from a wall outlet will eventually fry the electrical components in the bell. For this reason, it is recommended that one invests in an AC to DC converter if they get one of these E Bells.
All these foamers mad about E-Bells sounding bad when it's just a looped recording of an actual mechanical bell...
Is it known what kind it was recorded from?
Not looped from a mechanical bell. It’s a recording that was made from scratch but still sounds very good.
I doubt it. I have both a mechanical Graham White and an e-bell, and they sound pretty much alike.
Nice. Pretty good sounding e-bell, too.
I WAS FINDING THAT TYPE FOR 4 YEARS!
I want this on my bike so that ill be like "Get outta my way bitches"
Same
I thought this was some rare crossing bell, but It's the common locomotive bell!

E bell belongs to the metro ,Union Pacific, BNSF, CSX, NS and Amtrak
It belongs on any railroad, car and or truck that even has this bell.
Also NJ transit
It sounds like the Metra Train bell
Nice man!!
What you need to do is set it up to a timer plug and it's a loud alarm clock
Nah, get a Safetran mechanical bell
Gotta love em cuz I have the plug for it
ES43BBI Have E-Bell Now For Nathan P5 Horn
This is the bell on the UTA frontrunner
I take it that trains have 110volt?
Can’t tell what a e bell is or how it’s not like a bell
So u can just plug it directly into wall outlet?
Where is everyone getting these e bells i want one

Dead ringer for a mechanical bell, if you'll pardon the pun.

How much money did you bought this bell?
How did u get that
So I'm gonna buy one to put on my truck, how do I wire it? Can I just direct wire it too the battery with a switch? And is this AC or DC powered?

gregorygrice so if i strip the end of it, i can direct wire to my truck and im done?
+Kyle Best I would leave the female end alone and strip the outlet end if youre trying to direct wire it. I have mine set so I just plug it into the cigarette lighter like charging a phone.
gregorygrice well thats what i meant, can u send me a photo of your cord u use for the car?
Kyle Best I use the same cord thats in the video. All you do is buy an inverter that plugs into your car's cigarette lighter. Then just plug it in like you would do a normal outlet and it will ring. Unplug it when you want it to stop. You can also buy a switch so that you can keep it plugged in.
How mucth was this and where can i get one for my car
500/600 usd
Where can I get one of these?
i hate these bells with a passion, i love good old physical bells! mainly brass ones
Except for then they, you know, *stop working due to the cold or moisture in the airline* . Brass bells are appropriate for museums, not active locomotives.
How much does an E-bell go for nowadays?
$700-900 from Graham-White Co
nice
You need to hunt on ebay. I got mine for 285 few weeks ago
Damn I paid nearly 700 with shipping and tax for mine off ebay
how did u get one of those?
how do you get those?
That's the bell on the NJ Transit Train right?
Ford Escape it's also the bell on the UTA Frontrunner
Coaster World Yeah I think most commuter trains use those type of bells
Ford Escape Most of Amtrak's p42dcs and p42acs have these bells as well
Hakeem Mulholland And so do some acela express and the AmTrak regional
Ford Escape Yes that's right! I can't wait to ride the Amtrak one day!
Is it bad to put 12v through it?
As far as I know, no. When it receives too low of a power source it makes a different sound to let you know.
Sorry I ment 120v ac from a house
Like you did in the video
