Old columns outside Ironbridge power station site. Concretes with WRTL MRL6 lanterns.

WRTL 2600s, Crewe town centre.

WRTL MRL6s along the M6 heading through Hilton Park services. When this was first posted, the lanterns were currently being replaced and changed for Phosco P862s. Picture taken in 2018.

WRTL 2600 on concrete column and metal column with WRTL Arc in Stourbridge, right outside the train and bus stations. All of these side-street lights in the borough of Dudley run on cosmo.

WRTL Arcs at Stourbridge bus station entrance.

Thorn Alpha 4s, WRTL Arcs, and Philips SGS203s around Stourbridge town centre ring road.

Bracket for 4 lanterns on one column. WRTL MRL6s. Just off Neachells Lane near Wednesfield.

WRTL Iris lantern in Featherstone, South Staffs.

Town centre street lights, including a WRTL MRL6 lantern and a GEC Z9536 lantern in the background. Cannock, Staffordshire.

WRTL 2500 and Urbis Altra. PL lighting. Featherstone, South Staffs.

Stourbridge ring-road. 10 metre columns that date back to the late 1960s. This column has a WRTL Arc lantern, a casual replacement. The blue coloured column in the background has a Holophane Estilo lantern. The original lanterns would of all been LPS/SOX.

Old columns with WRTL Arc lanterns. Aston Expressway, Birmingham.

This is in Perton. These type of columns aren't really used much anymore, but they're still quite common in Staffordshire and Wolverhampton. The lantern is a WRTL 2600.

This is in Coven. Think these are 1990s columns. The previous lanterns were Philips SGS201s before they changed for a WRTL 2600 and Thorn Civics. Why they changed the lanterns I do not know.

WRTL 2600 lantern for side-street lighting. The main-road 12 metre columns have Philips Traffic-Vision lanterns. Three Tuns, Stafford Rd, Wolverhampton.

Stafford, Staffordshire. Photographed near North Walls side-street. Older column with a deep-bowl Urbis ZX3, and newer column with flat-glass WRTL Arc.

0ld Stewart & Lloyd columns with more modern sodium lanterns, WRTL 2600s. These columns are probably the 1950s versions too.

Unusual to see 2 working street lights so close together. The column with the WRTL Stela lantern was installed in 2014, when the roundabout was built. The column with the Philips Traffic-Vision lantern is older, which has been around since the mid to late 1990s at least.

Columns with LEDs installed especially for this more modern roundabout. Oxley, Wolverhampton.

Still some WRTL MRL6 lanterns in Blackpool that have never been removed, but no longer in service. These wall mounted ones are along Cookson Street, just outside Sainsburys and the Blackpool North station.

Thorn Alpha 2000s, WRTL Vectras, and Urbis Evolos light the tramway along the sea front in Blackpool. These posts all had Alpha 2000 lanterns on them at one time, installed in 1995. In around 2002 they changed some of the Alpha 2000s for Vectras, and around 2010/2011 they then changed some more for the Evolos. As of 2018/2019, they've since started installing Philips Iridiums too, where the tram extension to Blackpool North railway station is happening.

WRTL Arc 90 lanterns around J2 of the M54, where the i54 factories are. Some of these lanterns are looking a bit battered now.

Friar Park, Wednesbury. Concrete column and WRTL 2000 lantern.

Concrete columns with WRTL MRL6s and Thorn Alpha 3 lanterns. Victoria Street, Liverpool.

WRTL 2600 lanterns used as catenary lights. Not something you see very often at all.

Columbia Crescent, the new housing estate, where the old Goodyear factory used to be.

Stela (LED) lanterns, the new housing estate where the old Goodyear factory used to be.

LED Arc lanterns at Milton Keynes train station.

From April 2019. Green column with Arc 90 lantern in Shrewsbury.

From April 2019. Green column with Arc 80 lantern in Shrewsbury.

Concrete column with WRTL Arc 80 lantern that was in Stourbridge. Sadly all of these concrete street lights down this road have since been replaced.

WRTL MRL6 and Urbis ZX2 lanterns between Bilston and Willenhall, from October 2018.

Steel post-top side-road column with a WRTL 2600 lantern in Rugeley. From August 2018. Very common style of street light in Staffordshire.

Black post-top side-road column with a WRTL 2600 lantern in Rugeley. From August 2018. This is how quite a few of the town centre street lights are.

Blue post-top side-road column with a WRTL 2600 lantern in Stourbridge. From September 2018. Most of the town centre street lights are painted this colour.

In the foreground, concrete column with Philips MI26 lantern which is LPS/SOX. In the background, steel column with WRTL 2600 lantern which is HPS/SON.

At the bus stop, outside the Elephant & Castle junction. Philips Digistreets (LED) and WRTL Arcs (HPS/SON). Used to be all 1980s Simplex Jupiters around this junction at one time.

Closer up of the WRTL Arc 80 lantern. Elephant & Castle junction, Wolverhampton.

Phosco Liverpool-A lanterns and an WRTL MRL6 outside of Liverpool Lime Street station.

WRTL MRL6 and Phosco Liverpool-A along Riverside Drive in August 2018. Column with the MRL6 is a casual replacement and would of been another Liverpool-A and post-top at one time, many years ago though it seems so.

Along the A491 in Stourbridge, at the junction for Vicarage Rd. Older street lights seen here, with lanterns such as WRTL/Industria Arc 90s (HPS/SON) and GEC Z9554s (LPS/SOX). This photo was taken in February 2019, and since then I've been told that these street lights have now been renewed with new LEDs.

Along the A491 in Stourbridge, at the junction for Vicarage Rd. Older street lights seen here, lanterns such as a GEC Z9554 (left) and an Industria/WRTL Arc 90 (right). This photo was taken in February 2019, and since then I've been told that these street lights have now been renewed with new LEDs.

Junction 10 of the M6. This is a newer steel column and WRTL Vectra lantern, over the northern bridge. Due to the roundabout redevelopment work, this street light will eventually be getting removed again already.

Concrete column with its original outreach bracket, but with a more modern WRTL Arc 80 lantern, which is a casual replacement. You can also just about see a sleeved post-top WRTL Vectra lantern in the background as well. Unfortunately these will probably soon be replaced with new LED lanterns, and the old concrete columns could possibly get replaced as well. This picture was taken in Lye, along Chapel Street, just off the A458.

Industria/WRTL Vectra lanterns with blue columns and brackets in Tipton. The one column with another lantern lower down is for the zebra crossing, which is rather unusual to see.

Along the A458 coming into Stourbridge, just before you join the ring-road. These are 12m post-top steel columns with older WRTL/Industria Arc 90s (HPS/SON) to the left, and new Urbis Axia 2s (LED) to the right. These last few Arcs should be getting replaced with more Axia 2s at some point.

WRTL Iris fluorescent lantern in the village of Featherstone, South Staffs. Its around 20 years old now and has very recently started day-burning, more than likely due to the cell being faulty.

Along Level Street outside Merry Hill shopping centre, which is lit with Holophane V-Max (LED), but theres this one odd WRTL Arc 80 (HPS) as well. Not sure whether its one of the original lanterns and not been replaced, or if its since replaced one of the V-Max. Just seems strange.
