*"New"* E-Bell | SACRT 416 | Jackson Rd. Railroad Crossing, Sacramento CA

Jan 8, 2026
Sacramento Regional Transit light rail train on the SACRT Gold Line pass through the CA SR 16 Jackson Road railroad crossing in Sacramento, California.

The close signal had its broken Siemens E-Bell replaced with a used Union Switch & Signal Electronic Bell. This bell is either one from 28th St or from 51st St that SACRT got back to ringing but because of that, I wouldn't be surprised if this bell didn't last long here and dies. US&S E-Bells aren't too reliable unfortunately. All E-bells of this brand that SACRT used all died.
