It apparently originated at [www.memphisdailynews.com]. I wanted to hear what those bus bells sounded like. TL;DR, I didn't find a recording of them.

The article mentions a date of "Friday, May 1", but I found no "year" information, so I went digging.

My search [Trolley Bells Adjusted After Complaints]: [www.google.com] turned up this item: Trolley bus horn sound drives downtowners crazy [www.wmcactionnews5.com], which has this date info: May 1, 2015 at 4:33 PM CDT - Updated July 2 at 10:15 AM, so that's settled. Good thing, since May 1, 2020, is also on a Friday.

Changing my search to [Memphis Trolley Bells Adjusted After Complaints] [www.google.com] brought up this article: More Bells, Less Rumble: Memphis Trolleys Return, from April 2018, and this one: Trolleys are back, so stay off the tracks, MATA warns, from March 2019. So, it seems the Memphis Trolley Ding Dong Buses are gone and the trolleys are back.
