I think I've found the destination for the next OS Tram adventure.......Ferrymead has several working examples of telephone exchanges dating from the 1920's.  Lots of clanking spinning bits while you can prank call each other on rotary phones.

As much as this equipment piques my interest.. Did anything become of the oldschool ferrymead train inspection?
