Verizon would almost definitely have put in an an adtran 3000 shelf to turn an oc3 signal into multiple t1s, if they did anything like that at all. Please google for a picture of that. They might do that if the density was high enough at one point
The glass front shelf with multiple t1 cards is not necessarily fiber fed. That would be typical in a high density terminal room, which sounds likely since you said you got 300 pairs terminals.
'Rain' is not acceptable excuse for an outage. You have a t1 with a service level agreement, they gotta fix it. Your provider sounds like garbage. Shop around.
You got the benefit that they will condition a new copper pair to feed the new circuit as long as your old one is still active.
