Re: [telecom] 911 service center troubles [Telecom]
There were also prepay coin service in some larger manual exchanges. Postpay phones were common in smaller (rural?) exchanges.
A further additional benefit was that you could make a credit card or collect call without having to deposit a coin. Important if you didn't have a coin available. Yes, it was rare, but credit cards (and I think collect) calls could be made with a credit card.
Who pays for the pay phones in Union or other stations used by more than one railroad?
