Superb videos

Its beautyfull to hear that old bells, i remember the akoestic bells but this looks nogstalgic from the early 70's but i'm from 00's but i will learn how to its working the akoestic ons that now in de NL with an Raspberry pi" nice video and i'm store it in booksmarks

Those incandescent lights at 7:50 are cool too. They go nicely with the mechanical bells there.

They flash a lot slower compared to the LED’s that replaced them. Similar speed to the Railway crossings in Australia and US.

@@0ne-6right40 Every crossing used to flash at that rate (45 flashes/minute) but this was increased to 90 flashes/minute after some research by ProRail showed it stood out better to the public or something (something I still consider bullshit). But as far as I know they only started converting to 90 when incandescents were replaced by LEDs, as the incandescents could hardly keep up with 90 flashes a minute. This shows well how bad it looks if an incandescent flashes at 90 flashes per minute: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lIuftJiSiJuYk5M.html ) This shows a crossing from back in the days with red LED lights, but white incandescents, still flashing at the old rate (and with mechanical bells as well ;) ). The crossing does not exist anymore.

I like that when the barriers are going down the bells are loud and when the barriers are closed the loud bells stop!

@@ralzvy Most likely not broken, but vandalised. The fact the other barriers come to a nice horizontal position indicates the pedestrian barrier has rotated on the axle it is on, most likely because chavs have hung on to it to get it down. As both barriers are driven by the same motor, they also go down together.

Pretty neat how the one light at 17:30 is incandescent. Also, how the one working low-toned bell there operates is weird.

@weeardguy

Almost all other lights are incandescents as well ;) The whole crossing seems to be equipped with D-type gates, which are, as far as I know, the closest resemblance of the US-type of gates. That isn't strange as our whole railroad-crossing signalling system comes from the US and the Museumtram Hoorn-Medemblik probably relies on old gate-systems, taken from other places as new one are unaffordable for them. D-type gates can be recognized by the lowering of the gates that is severely slowed down at around 5 degrees left to horizontal position. To be honest, I think the bell is just worn out. The hammer probably starts moving, but only hits the bell after a few swings. Possible vandalism on the right gate-system probably does the rest in already silencing the low bell after a few 'dings'. There is another bell missing: the low bells are on the poles closest to the road, the high bells are located more to the outside of the crossing.

weeardguy The designs of the equipment seems to come from GRS and WRRS here. The higher-toned bells resemble, and sound a lot like, WRRS mini-bells. The lights also look like GRS XC lights without the logo (www.rxrsignals.com/Alabama/Courtland/Alabama/10.JPG ; full crossing: www.rxrsignals.com/Alabama/Courtland/Alabama/), and the gate mechanisms resemble that of a GRS Type-D gate mech, only with a lower mounting point for the gate arm supports (www.rxrsignals.com/Alabama/Attalla/Cherry/6.JPG ; full crossing: www.rxrsignals.com/Alabama/Attalla/Cherry/). I found an old railroad crossing safety PSA from the Netherlands that showed a signal with GRS XB/XD lights on it as well, and an extremely fast WRRS mini-bell, or at least equipment that used the same molds. Where's what the GRS XB/XD lights look like: www.rxrsignals.com/102/Signals/8/XD/ (As for the claim about them not existing in the US anymore, one crossing had a pair of them as of 2007, and may still have them, as was discovered recently; also Canada has at least one pair of them as well.)

It's probably not directly GRS-equipment: many things we imported from the US was tested here and when found adequate enough, it was eventually altered to Dutch standards and then made 'in license' as we call it here, by Machinefabriek Alkmaar (Machinefactory Alkmaar). The whole design was already there, we just built it with permission from the original US-manufacturer/designer. Cool file btw, I never saw it, though it is a Dutch company ;)

It's because the level crossings still equipped with incandescent lights have not been modernised when, somewhere halfway through the '90's or so, the infrastructural owner decided to change the flash rate from 45 flashes/minute to 90 flashes/minute. But incandescent lights hardly light at those flash rates (a good example is this one: kzread.info/dash/bejne/epyiyrqSfpzLp84.html This already old-fashioned type of crossing has got the flash rate set at 90. The red lights usually are LED, while the white lights usually were left un-altered. Probably down to costs (white LEDs that could equal bulbs were expensive in the nineties/beginning of 2000's) and their number (the amount of red lights is and was far greater than the amount of white lights). But as you can see, the white light is hardly visible. This is probably also the reason why incandescents were not converted to the new flash rate.

Could very well be. Someone explained to me once what the material was these bells were casted from. It was something like a mixture of brass and bronze if I remember it right. Because of the tolerances and differences in the mixtures, no bell sounds alike ;) It's a pity I never did a recording of the crossing in my city: it had at least 8 mechanical bells, but all of them got replaced years ago.
