I went to Six Flags over texas yesterday in Dallas. Went from Shreveport, to Dallas, had fun,thenback to shreveport xD I am in mississippi now though xD
Of Course Ian.....you Passed by it Again...be fun to see if anything was here many many years ago...like when I-20 was First built into this Area in the 70's
Yeah these Cooper OV-25's are expensive,I was originally going to order one from the wholesaler as there never seemed to be any take-downs,but luckily one came in to the lighting contractor.
More Recently the M400R2 is the Choice Fixture for texas interstates,i Wonder Which one lasts longer since Cooper Apparently makes Rotten Ballasts (Rotten = Crappy)
the TXDOT Place for my Region (East Texas) is right here in Tyler and they actually have a Few Cooper OV-25 FCO's Laying on the ground among other New FCO's
Yes you will have to be quick or be lucky to be on time...I ALMOST did not get the first GE M-250R....I was lucky to catch some workers who was just taking the old fixture into the truck! It was left on next to the pole...so I made it ON time!
I was tempted to ask the linemen in my town for some McGraw Edison Unistyle 175's that they were replacing due to the borough's request to have their lighting upgraded but usually 9 times out of 10 they'll say no and plus they were really busy anyway and I didn't want to bother them.
The linemen here are really nice, probably because I'm still a kid. When they were turning on the lights in my neighboorhood, a lineman gave me the open cap and a new Fisher Peirce Sun Tech PC.
I hate it when they leave those ugly leveling devices on the doors.
those fixtures sitting on the grounds of our Area TXDOT Office are now gone...they could have gotten installed or whatever...who knows....now there sits a bunch of glass lenses.
