[Gone] Bye, Bye B2255s :( Pair of B2255s shown here days before removal. They, along with the other MV lights (more B2255s and a OV 25) were removed on Tuesday ish as part of a renovation to the passenger waiting area and parking lot at this subway station. :/ Keywords: American_Streetlights

That's too bad Sad Did you try to see if you could save any of the fixtures Joseph?

Aww. They're mercs too. Sad

Yeah too bad they're getting replaced, unfortunately I wasn't able to get them since I don't have enough space and I already have a B2255 lol.

The davit pieces look very similar to the ones here if not exactly the same. Perhaps these are HAPCO?

Update: The poles have been replaced with square steel poles and the lights are now 400w PSMH Hubbell RLGs (with odd 40P red tags) on tapered e arms. I was a bit surprised to see them as the subway normally uses Cooper lumes for replacements.

Somehow I feel the davit might be Powerlite, but I know the pole is made by TEC-Stresscrete.

Pic please? Shame these guys couldn't have simply been reballasted. Sad The poles like it's in fine condition... Confused

I don't have one (unless you want one of just the poles Razz ) since I saw them at night but I might be able to grab one tomorrow. It's too bad they didn't reballast them too. Another station also got upgraded lighting but they reballasted the original B2217s to MH instead of replacing.

I think they decided to replace the poles because some of the others in the lot were crumbling badly and had to be removed prematurely.

Too bad these fixtures got replaced, you should of saved one so I could have it! xD

At least the fixtures these were replaced with are good quality and MH!

Ian what happened to you not being allowed to have any more lights? Razz Laughing If you keep getting more lights you might end up seeing them up for grabs on ebay. Razz That was my mom's threat. If i come home with another street light I'll have to get rid of them all. Shocked She said nothing about fluorescents though lol. Laughing
