Squanz Engine Company-New Fairfield CT......How do they ring the bell?

[x635 4,066]

I know that most engines with a bell usually have it on the front bumper, and is rang through a string ran inside to the cab.

However, this engine has no room on the front bumper to place anything, let alone a bell. So, their bell is mounted in a unique place...which leads me to the question....how do they ring the bell?

Electric strikers exist so you just press a switch to ring the bell. There of course is an additional cost and maintenance associated with it compared to a string run into the cab to tug on.

I'm not sure if that is how this apparatus is set-up though.
