Re: Aussie Rig (maiden voyage)

Wow! Looks you got quite the setup! Next you need one of those oil tanks that the trucks pull, and then convert it into an air tank! :lol:

Re: Use of Bells in USA?

The bell looks like it's mounted that it could be operational, but I don't see a clapper. Could be hiding somewhere in the bell though.

Re: Use of Bells in USA?

It all depends on the railroad and their rules regarding bell usage but they should all be the same for highway grade crossing warning. Horn sounded 15-20 seconds and bell run continously until the crossing is occupied. Most if not all railroads require the bell to be rung continously while passing...

Re: Nathan K5LA Compilations

A lot of those horns are fouled. That's why I don't really watch those.
