Hello, I take that you are from the Atlanta Metropolian area.  They have recently replaced with LEDs at the ramp area and the bus stop area.  The North Spring Station was first built in 2000 with the HPS at the ramp and the clear MV at the bus stop area.  How I missed the clear MV at the bus station

these are definitely not LEDs. take a look at them when you drive by at night again. they're either MH or coated MV.

Hi bryantm3,

I haven't response your message for a while, but I think you are right that they refitted with HID at North Spring MARTA Station there.  I did noticed the failure where some of the light has lost the salt emission and started get dimmed.

It's not like the clear Mercury Vapor bulbs that they originally install that last almost forever here

I saw your pic. In the pic, those are newer (1997-present) GE M-400s. If the lamp itself shines white with a hint of yellow and/or pink then it's a /DX lamp.
