Thanks, Jeff. Pity I didn't know about your site when I was writing this
page:

I have a diagram from the catalogue of the selector key used on the
train dispatcher's system.
The dispatcher would have one of the cabinets illustrated from Paul
Wills collection with a selector key for each waystation.
It's interesting to hear that the system found uses in the teleprinter
business too. I must check out those patent numbers that Jim came up with.
Cheers,
Sam
