Ringing 2 Safetran Mechanical Bells on Watson Ave

[@matthewadventureexploratio6596]

Hey Otter, I tried to ring the Railroad Crossing Mechanical Bell, located on Cory Street, which is in North Hillsboro. I must need to shake harder. You can do it if you want too. There are some in Forest Grove & Cornelius too. It’s on the South Side.

Cool. Did you get a video? Some signals are really stiff and some are easier.

Did you shake the Railroad Crossing Bell on Hall Blvd, Only the Right Shoulder. They do need to add Guard Rails. Downtown Beaverton Loop Project is a Plan & it will takes lots of time & money. Construction starts in 2026. Railroad Crossings will be replaced & it will no longer be Mechanical Bells, it will be Electrical Bells & No Train Horns in coming Years.

@@matthewadventureexploratio6596 are all the crossings on TV highway getting replaced?

@@OtterMan310 TV Highway does need Major Makeover, cause it’s not safe at all. Sidewalks to be Rebuilt on the Northside & adding more Streetlights, it will include Traffic Signal Upgrades & possibly Replace Railroad Crossings if they haven’t when it’s Old & Worn Out.

@@matthewadventureexploratio6596 what they should do is add a pedestrian railroad crossing at the intersection of TV Highway & 178th. It can have gates like at MAX crossings or normal crossing gates. It will include lights and a bell as well. I see people crossing the tracks there all the time from the bus stop to the neighborhood
