Here's a couple of photos I took of this intersection with the 3M signals:
Those are McCain PV signals, not 3M.

3M signals have square lenses, McCain PVs have round lenses.

Because Mccain isn't 3M.
So? Because the signal is a programmable visibility signal it can be 3M!

Come on, give McCain some love...

That intersection also has one of those odd Maryland doghouses. I don't even want to call it a doghouse sense it really isn't in the shape of one which is why signals like that are called doghouses.

It's an 8-8-8-12-12 doghouse. They kinda have to be done in the style of an off-set doghouse or else it looks real funky.
They/Them for me, please.
