Thanks, Paul!

I don't own any payphones, but I always enjoy looking through Bell System practices even for things I don't collect, just to see pictures of Western Electric equipment I'll probably never get to see in real life.

For example, here are my four fave pics from the above document.  The first two picture manual payphones, and the final two picture ten-button touch tone payphones.

Fun stuff!

It would be great, but each time I have tried to download it, it has come up with a corrupt document message after 54 megabytes have been downloaded (I tried it three times). I will email Remco and let him know...

It worked ok for me...

The files on the server are fine.  Dave apparently has a network issue.  Hopefully it's temporary.  We got him a copy of the manual, so he can work the other issue at his leisure.

Let us know if anyone else has a problem.  The most direct way is to use the Feedback feature on the TCI Library site.
