It’s really cool that some of the older A-frame wishbone gate signals are still in use

Thanks! It is great that they’re still in service especially the hinged wishbone gate on Lake Street on the west side of the bridge! kzitem.info/news/bejne/w5pu4J6Er3R8g5g

I know there is a Delay before They Lower the gates(A 30 second Delay), But I always remember Hearing them make a Loudspeaker Announcement beforehand. In your videos, They seem not to do them. Or maybe We miss the beginning part where it is done. And this is one of the old crossings. Neat. Most of the signals have been replaced with The new bright yellow ones that Fades the Word " Stop ". But Nice to see this one in action. I never get to see the ones on the northern part but I see the ones on the South portion yearly. Nice content

I don’t think they do the loudspeaker announcements anymore, and the north branch rarely activates. Wigwags, and these old style Chicago Drawbridge signals are my favorite. It’s the camera that makes the news drawbridge signals fade. They don’t actually fade. Thanks

They recently refreshed a good portion of the equipment. The only problem is the motor bell is gone.

The WRRS motor bell is called a WRRS 1203 bell for future reference

Actually the WRRS motor bells are called 555 bells, Both the motor bells and the 1203 bells have a little back box but the difference is that the 1203 bell Has a rectangular back to it and the motor bell has a square back

1203's can operate on both DC and AC. They don't use motors.

It’s not broken, it’s just how the inner workings of the bell makes it ring the rhythm it is because unlike other mechanical bells this one has a motor in it
