Florence, a mix of new and old.
Florence, Alabama has mostly new 12 inch Siemens traffic lights and 12 inch McCain traffic lights, but that doesn't mean that they don't have any old or interesting traffic lights.
Florence has three 4-ways, incandescent worded pedestrian signals, 3M traffic lights (including two 3M doghouses), Checker traffic lights, and even neon worded pedestrian signals.

Here is a Crouse-hinds Type M 4-way at the intersection of Tuscaloosa Street and Seminary Street:
TSI-style 4-way at the intersection of Tombigbee Street and Seminary Street:
Eagle 4-way at the intersection of Mobile Street and Seminary Street. One of the sides faces down a one-way street that goes in the opposite direction that it faces. That side is lit up, but the red and green bulbs are blown. The yellow still works though.
While there aren't as many neon pedestrian signals as there are incandescent worded pedestrian signals, there are still quite a few of them in the downtown area. The screenshots shown here are from various intersections. When I went to Florence on 1-25-14, most of them didn't work correctly. About half of them didn't light up, most of the ones that did light up didn't cycle, and on most of the ones that did cycle, the WALK indication didn't light up properly. Only one of them worked right. These were made by ICC.
Florence also has regular incandescent pedestrian signals. Most of them, if not all of them, are in the downtown area as well. These screenshots are from various intersections in downtown Florence as well. These were made by ICC as well.
Florence has a few 3M traffic lights. The screenshots of them are be captioned with the intersection they are at.
There are a few Checker signals left in Florence. The ones shown here are at the intersection of Chisholm Road, Wood Avenue, Edgewood Drive, and Wills Avenue. If there are any more in Florence, then I haven't found them yet.
