You should actually make your own custom crossing bell for it as your final project with it!

😉 I'm getting a railfan vibe about you from this video. Nice looking project. I'm hoping that one day somehow, and legally, I'll get my hands on a real one, or even some old Southern Railway signals.

Oh AWWWSOMMME!, and a real bell too. Love the sound those mechanical ones make. As with the fire alarms you can get electronic ones too but they sound so fake as they are just basically a synthesizer through a speaker.

I remember seeing this signal not too long after you posted the first video on it, boy these years pass by quite fast lmao Ive got a couple of my own custom wooden gates here at my house and im planning to make my own mechanism for it, similar size to yours, but im wondering where i should look online for things like the 12v power supply and linear actuator. And going back to basics, i assume the power cable coming from the pergola enters the switch on the base then changes to the cable for the power board which is where the power supply plugs into? Keep up the great work man 👍

Make a traffic light next. It will be for parking your car. It goes red when you can’t go back further and yellow when your close. Turn the sensor on with a button on the light so that you know when to stop when parking on your driveway. 😊

I would recommend selling your crossing signal rather than take it apart there are people out there who have interest in these home built signals either for display or for their own backyard Railroad and also I am an expert on these crossing bells. The contactor has a little adjustable nut, and that controls the speed of the bell to make it ring fast or slow

14:55 there is a nut at the end of that contactor. That is how you adjust the speed of the bell. It extends to the strip to make it ring fast or if you extend it back it’ll ring slow. Here’s a video from my own channel of a similar bell. kzitem.info/news/bejne/y3eDvmalhZmIY6w I hope it helps

I think the lights can be a bit bigger and maybe add that bell to the top of the crossing, put a blue sign on it for emergency contact and give it to CN lol

You should do a video where you compare Canadian/American fire alarms to other countries fire alarms because I’m in the UK and I know there is quite a lot of differences.
