In Leicester, only the lamp heads were replaced. Now the programme is

I couldn't see before, although it is not as dark as it would be in
the countryside.


A village station near me has had platform light upgrades to LED - and
rather cleverly, the lights run dim until you walk near one, then it
fades up (not switches) to full brightness. A sort of inverse
