This is the Bellambi Lane level crossing at Bellambi, New South Wales. It is located on the South Coast line in the northern suburbs of Wollongong. Since filming this video in November 2019 the pedestrian crossing has been fitted with four additional WCH e-bells and I will be returning to film them for part 2 of this video.
The current signals were installed on May 7, 2006 and replaced the original gated signals which featured GRS/WRRS Type B gate mechanisms and dated back to the early 1960's. Both of the current signals have Western Cullen Hayes bases, Western Cullen Hayes gate mechanisms, Alstom/United Group LED lights and Western Cullen Hayes electronic bells which replaced the previous WCH mechanical bells around two years ago. The bell on the eastern signal rings from start up until the gates have lowered, while the western bell rings until the gates rise.
At the time of filming the bells were switched off at night between 10pm and 6am and the crossing was silent during those times, although this has now most likely changed with the new pedestrian crossing e-bells being installed.
The pedestrian crossing has Magnetic Autocontrol swing gates and Aldridge don't walk lights. Due to Bellambi station having an island platform there are two pairs of pedestrian gates which activate separately for each track.
