Mercury M-250R

This Angeles Crest neighborhood in La Canada Flintridge still has some of these old M-250Rs in service, however many are very dim, only some are still bright. All have clear mercury lamps. These mercs are owned by Southern California Edison, which is a rare occurance as virtually all mercs in SCE territory are owned by cities, as SCE phased out its mercs in the early 80s due to CPUC's conversion program following the 70s energy crisises.
