Arnold, every time I see a bell ringer at a train show, I wonder, "Can I live with all the ringing in my ears?" So far I have declined, but I may still end up with one in the future - I love the engine, in fact I love my 623 non-bell-ringer. I guess I could get one and just disable the bell - did you? 

I also bought this 6220 shell for $1 at a train show. It was warped, stripped of all it's goodies, had no chassis, wheels or motor, but I just loved the look, so now it's my computer desk "ornament"

I love the bell, but the obsession is such that I have 3 bellringers and 1 non-bell ringing 623.

Good deal for $1. I would get 1 complete model, which is possible to find in good working order for a little less than $100, and keep the shell as a back up. It's got heft and magnetraction so it's a good puller.
