Look Mum No Computer has been rearranging his #UAX13 #strowger #TelephoneExchange to make better use of the space and squeeze in a couple more racks.
It’s a substantial effort to go to, must have been a busy week, but it looks like they got quite a lot done!

One day I’ll make the 6hr drive to go visit…

Another day at the #DeanForestRailway working on the #UAX13 #strowger #ElectroMechanical #TelephoneExchange … today I was changing the strapping on the vertical marking bank (VMB) for some group selectors.
The VMB is used when the selector moves vertically, to allow/deny access to certain levels.
Here I converted a selector that allowed (89)xx to allow (34567890)xx
This changes it from serving our museum demo phones to be suitable for use as an incoming selector from a distant exchange.

I spent today at the #DeanForestRailway working on their #UAX13 #Strowger #PhoneExchange
We’re increasing the junction capacity between Norchard and Parkend (about 3 miles away) and I needed to trace out how the existing junctions are cabled, find the existing terminating equipment, run new cables, prepare new terminating selectors…
Yesterday was leg day at the gym, so I only got about 75% done before I couldn’t cope with the step ladder any longer!
