I don't know about most of this. My interest is more Outside Plant and CO operations/maintenance. If you get a chance and are up for a drive, head over to the Museum. https://ellsworthme.org/ringring/index.html

Great display too bad they don't have an old plunger line switch to demo.

One CO that I missed photographing was the former Frenchboro CO. One of the members of the museum used to run a telephone company (actually one of the smallest in the US) on an island off the coast of ME. He sold the business. Years later the new owners abandoned the CO for modern equipment and he got the CO back. Transported it back to mainland, and donated it to the museum.
One other cool thing I didn't mention is that this is a working museum. Most of the phones are wired up so you can call any of them. AND the museum is hooked up to other collections in the US via VoIP. :toast:
I'm probably going back in a month, so if anyone has any specific requests for close-up photos or a video of one of the switches in action, let me know.

Yes, we are all connected via C*NET, the Collectors' Network. "Leading the trailing edge of technology." www.ckts.info tells the story
