If the pole isn't badly damaged or stolen by scrappers (yes, idiots have been caught trying to cut knocked down light poles and put them in their pickup truck beds and drive them to the scrapyard. ) the pole will be reinstalled with new bolts. If the pole is severly damaged, if it's in a newer installation area, it will be identical, and if it's an older installation it will be whatever they happen to have.
Okay it's confirmed. The streetlight in this picture (Street-view) IS the model 25 I own. I drove past this place a while ago.. (the day I got my cooper OVH and M-400 A1 FCO, so last sunday) and I saw all the other lights were still UP. But the one NEXT to the bridge was taken down. I saw the base of the pole that was there and the next light over was a truss arm and had the fixture I saw on the street view.
And where I found the light was next to this bridge so Uh huh, This picture IS my model 25 FCO.

.. I think. This is right next to the bridge they are working on, where they are adding an exit.
My model 25 was on an upsweep arm, like this one, and this is the only Model 25 on an upsweep arm for a while.
So I guess this is mine.
Anyway, here it is in service, I bet it has those two ignitors in it. Not sure. The flat glass is still on here at the time of the street view.

Jace said regulated lag ballasts are expensive and hard to get, he said I Was lucky to find one. xD The ballast IS huge. Very huge.
Anyway about the PICTURE, It's hard to tell the details on this. I am pretty sure this is my Model 25 because of where it's located and all that.
Hmm.. Do you think the upsweep is new? That they replaced the old pole in this picture and replaced it with an upsweep? But keeping the old fixture?
All the arms are mixed, lots are trusses, but different design trusses. I don't get it. o.o
