Western Electric 295-AK subset

Another eBay find,  a little older than the last one:

Different set-up than my other 295-As.  The 51A retard coil seems to be the difference.  The terminals have been moved to the top, a new schematic added and its been painted black.

Very nice Sarge! I should have been looking. That's a price I could even afford.

Thanks.  Now if I can just figure ourt what it was used for.   There are 3 sets of wires.  One is for TIP and Ring, the other is for an external ringer and the third is a wiring harness that attaches to several of the terminals.  Apparently an early key-set ringer box???  I will have to find my reading glasses and check the diagram more closely.

I see that Steph had some information on the TCI forum that is was probably used in a railroad environment.

Well Sarge, if you cant find a use for it, I surely can and you can make a profit. Hint, Hint!

Give me a week to see if it grows on me or not.  Right now I have no use for it in its current state, but I could use a few of the parts,

I don't mean to hijack the thread - I need a wonderful-looking lid diagram like yours, but for a 634A subset. The Library at TCI (I am a member) has a technically-correct diagram, but I wouldn't put it in the lid.

Anyone? Thanks.

I don't have a decent 634A wiring diagram, but if anyone needs s 295AK diagram, LMK
