Now available for sale is a lot of misc parts and components for the # 155 Bell Ringing Signal. Below is a summary of the parts:

  • Two signal bodies, one complete and one missing the top crossbuck. One base is nice and white, easily condition 6+, almost a 7.
  • Six internal motors are included -- although only five are pictured. Five are the early variation and one is the later variation with the spring loaded operating mechanism for the bell. The motors were very quickly tested and two do rotate, but will need to be cleaned and serviced for perfect operation. The other four do not rotate based upon a very quick test.
  • Two boxes, one in poor condition (condition 4) and one in respectable condition (about a 6+ to a 7).
  • Two original instruction sheets, both dated September 1955, one has blue ink, one has black ink.

Note: You are buying the lot as is -- and with the assumption work will be needed to get the signals functional. You should be able to get one signal fully functional, otherwise there are a lot of remaining parts.
