Dial-A-Local

If you enlarge this photograph you might catch a glimpse of the local superhero doing a quick change in the phonebox. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's Supertelephonist!

 

These red telephone boxes are very rare now, but you see plenty of rare things in historical Ross in Tasmania's Midlands. Both these boxes a fully operational (and on standby for superheroes or even a wannbe Dr Who). The box on the left is a fascinating way to tell local history. Open the door, go inside and dial up a story. Did you see the operator looking out at us?
