What type of traffic lights are these, and are they common? (im not a expert on traffic lights )
I go by these all the time (they are still there,) but I haven't seen much of this type elsewhere.
EDIT: Almost every type of No Turn On Red signs here

Re: Traffic Lights
This is certainly different from anything I've seen before... especially those two clear signal heads.

Re: Traffic Lights
That's certainly interesting, especially this 12-8-8 with a 3M red and 8 inch Eagle Flat-back sections that have 3M's 8 inch adapters mounted on them (and they appear to be improperly mounted at that, lol):SirKrunch wrote: ↑Mon Sep 02, 2019 3:14 pmThis is certainly different from anything I've seen before... especially those two clear signal heads.

Re: Traffic Lights
In the St. Louis area, there’s a lot of all-black Durasig lights with dotted LEDs and some Dialight LED lights. Newer installations are tending to have all-black Durasig lights, Dialight LED lights, and occasionally have yellow reflective tape on the backgrounds. Kirkwood still has some yellow housing-black face heads. They’re McCain. Also there is some older incandescent lights. Sadly, MODOT is replacing all of them with the newer Durasig Dialight signals.

OG signal collection signature, I think.

Re: Traffic Lights
Not really surprised, i think certain parts of Kirkwood do have LED traffic signals already if i'm not mistaken while i've browsed Google Maps, so tbh it does cut down on maintenance for the incandescent signals.UnionPacific4Life wrote: ↑Tue Sep 03, 2019 1:44 pmIn the St. Louis area, there’s a lot of all-black Durasig lights with dotted LEDs and some Dialight LED lights.

Though over here all that pretty much matters is the replacements of street lights, not traffic lights.

Re: Traffic Lights
Yeah. A lot do, the ones at and north of the UP main are incandescent. I also find the traffic light purge unnecessary.

Those are McCains. In fact, they appear to be aluminum ones that have just lost all of their paint and corroded to hell and back.NathanFromEngland wrote: ↑Sat Sep 07, 2019 7:19 amPoorly maintained Durasigs.
