Bell sequence: Bell rings until gates rise.

Horn setting: Quiet zone.

Signal on the left: A WCH base, a WCH gate mechanism with RECO LED gate lights and 3 pairs of Safetran 12x20" lights with GE Uniform Look LEDs.

Signal on the right: A WCH base, a WCH gate mechanism with RECO LED gate lights, 4 pairs of Safetran 12x20" lights with GE Uniform Look LEDs and a WCH mechanical bell.

On my way home from filming more trains around southern New Brunswick, I chased VIA 14 from Moncton, NB to Truro, NS. After catching them in downtown Moncton, I chased VIA 14 to this crossing where I waited about 10 minutes before the crossing activated, and VIA 14 came through, stopping at the nearby Amherst Station.

Since my first video of this crossing back in 2019, there has been a slight change to the near signal, where extra side lights were added around 2021. Thankfully, nothing else has changed to the signals since then. The WCH mechanical bell has been tuned up and is ringing a bit faster since my first video, which is quite nice. It’s also one of the last remaining mechanical bells left on the Springhill Sub.
