TBS TRC Crossings

Has anyone had luck fixing the TBS TRC Grade Crossings? I saw that there's no bell.wav file present which led me installing them myself but to no avail. There's still no sound even though everything else is golden. Any helpers able to assist?
 
The Nebraska Route Harvest Redux which you might have access to on Trainz 22. had working Grade Crossings with sound. Noticed that a couple of days ago while kicking back and doing a bit of route running. I went and looked real quick and this one worked for sure:

kuid2 39134 101062 4 Grade Xing US OH 2L

There is a original Nebraska Route for 19. I can't check that out but try it but it might be working also in that edition.
 
I found this in my tech notes regarding TRC crossings. It's been a while since I worked on them.

You need to open up the config.txt file for each TBS crossing for editing and place this line by itself, meaning not between any curly brackets. { }

custom-category-list "TRC"

Once added, save and close the config.txt file.
Back in Content Manager, submit the TRC crossing and view errors and warnings to be sure there are no errors. Warnings are okay.

If there are no errors, repeat with other crossings and parts.

This is what's missing:
bell
{
kind "attachment"
att "a.bell0"
default-mesh <kuid:378673:104010>
}
}
}
}

soundscript
{
sound1
{
distance 50,150
repeat-delay 0,0
trigger "CrossingSound"
nostartdelay 1

sound
{
0 "bell.wav"
}
}
}

No wonder why it won't get any sound. I don't want to mess with the bell attachment because it could ruin that crossing's appearance. This is what's missing in the TBS TRC Crossing configuration. What's the best way to fix this?
 
It appears you are missing the complete mesh-table among other parts.

Here's an example mesh-table. The mesh has to exist so that the parts work and I'm not sure what I'm showing here is 100% correct.

Code:
mesh-table
{
  default
  {
    mesh                                "<kuid:378673:104010>"
    auto-create                         1
  }
  
 }

The Trainz Wiki should have information on this. Your best bet is to take a look at a working crossing and then make the changes accordingly on the broken ones. It doesn't even have to be from TBS.

I recommend cloning one first to test on one of your own. If it works, then you do that on the original and then update the others. I'm not sure where the sound container goes in relation to the mesh, etc.

They all have a mesh table similar to that and it's complete. The sound part is definitely missing.

That's good, so it's just the sound then?

Look at the config.txt file that belongs to a working asset. This will give you an inkling on how to fix the TBS crossings. The Trainz Wiki maybe helpful for this too.
