*WRRS M-Bell* BNSF Local Train - Poplar Street, Hutchinson, KS

Despite BNSF’s La Junta Sub being full of classic equipment, there are instances of BNSF doing upgrades.
Take a look at the Poplar Street crossing. While it retains incandescent lights and a WRRS M-Bell (with a beautiful tone), the Safetran M-Bell on the other cantilever has been replaced with a GS Type 3 E-Bell. Likewise, the old 7 inch gate lights were replaced quite recently with RECO 4 inch LED gate lights.

Great video and crossing! Wonder if the Safetran on the far side died?
