Given that that bell is located on what appears to be a 90s NS install (and on a former SOU line per the DOT number), I'm guessing the GFRR must've re-used it from somewhere to replace the original Safetran bell.
EDIT: Here's another one at Broad Avenue & Peachtree Street in Doerun, GA:

Also looks to have been re-used from somewhere else by the GFRR (I'm guessing one of their ex-SCL lines).
Don't entirely see why they would be, lol.ProFoamingBishop wrote: ↑Tue May 16, 2023 11:39 pmsurprised it hasnt been stolen yetfreebrickproductions wrote: ↑Sat Apr 01, 2023 5:54 pmGA 133, just north of Moultrie, GA:

They aren't exactly light-weight, basing that on the fact that I own a couple, and there's also the fact that you'd need to cut the wires to the bell and there's no guarantee that the bolt(s) holding the bell to the mast aren't frozen either. Plus, given that's right in the middle of the downtown of the community there and said community's in the middle of nowhere in Georgia, it ain't a desirable one to steal, even if someone who might want to steal one's able to get there.ProFoamingBishop wrote: ↑Wed Jun 14, 2023 3:36 pmi just thought since it was near the ground someone could just unscrew it off the pole and get away with itfreebrickproductions wrote: ↑Sun Jun 04, 2023 9:29 amDon't entirely see why they would be, lol.ProFoamingBishop wrote: ↑Tue May 16, 2023 11:39 pmsurprised it hasnt been stolen yetfreebrickproductions wrote: ↑Sat Apr 01, 2023 5:54 pmGA 133, just north of Moultrie, GA:
