Panel Switchman using transmission measuring test set. Circa early 1970's. The various colored bars actually represented outgoing trunks with colors used to delimit trunks groups. There was one jack for each outgoing trunk. The green cords shown plugged into trunks are how the Switchman would access trunks for testing. The gray device his left hand is on was used to measure the signal coming back from a distant offices miliwatt 1000 cycle test line. Below his left arm are the rows of buttons used to enter the number you wanted dialed on the trunk by the OGT circuits. The OGT contained a mini sender for trunk testing. An old example used to be 0077 for 1000 cycle test tone and 0085 for test line test (answer supervision test). These numbers no longer apply.

An actual Central Pacific switch lock key. Golden Spike National Historic Site, Promontory Summit, Utah, 29 December 2023.
As a matter of fact, I just switched to an old GLAY wallpaper a couple of hours ago.
Typically I use a daily or hourly rotation of wallpapers - the Macs have the ability to do that, and I have been rotating HYDE concert pictures and video game wallpapers (Disgaea, Poison Pink) for a while.
I switched to GLAY earlier this evening since I just saw them a few days ago and was still buzzing from the excitement. I liked this picture a lot, because JIRO is hot. Normally I wouldn't say he's hot - he's usually just cute or adorable on stage, but this one I think he's hot XD, especially he rarely dons fishnet type sleeves. In any case, this picture was from 2004 when they celebrated their 10th anniversary.
As for the rest of the desktop, I try to keep it clean, as you can see I only have two icons on there - my HD. BTW, I name all my computers in some form of "Navi", derived from the anime Lain from a while back. So the fact that this is a 15" Powerbook G4, I named it PowerNavi. And kinda semi-unrelated, GLAY is also sometimes being referred to as G4 ever since their 2006 single "G4".
The only other icon I have on there is "Hercules.rdp". As most of the world is still in Windows mode, I need a way to connect back to my office's Windows server. That is the remote desktop connection that I use.
The dock at the bottom contains my applications. My favorite browser is Firefox. My mail program is, well, Mail. I play music with my iTunes, and I chat with Adium (displayed on the left side and blurred to protect the innocent). I do use Microsoft products such as Word to write my articles. As for viewing PDF files, I typically use Preview. Last but not least, I use QuickSilver a lot. It's a utility that indexes a variety of items in the computer, and I can open it with the keyboard alone, without moving my hands to the mouse. It's super handy. I also use 4 Spaces on my Mac, which is running Leopard OSX10.5, and I can't live without Spaces.
My other computers (17" Powerbook G4 and 20" iMac) are for work, and are set up pretty much the same way. I have also retired my IBM Thinkpad T43 last month. I haven't had a Windows machine at home for a year now.

Was visiting Winterdeer/Korone this weekend and we had a chance to photograph some of our dolls together whose characters belong to the same stories uwu It was fun, even if the weather was kind of horrible for going outside and we had to have an indoor shoot haha. The big Dollshe guy is mine, the cute Switch is Winterdeer's.
Each Panel Sender had three sequence switches. One for timing, one for call progress and one only used on PCI call types (the short one).
When you don't have an open runaround track you have to use another engine to move the consist so the engine to be used can get to the other end and in the clear, sometimes called a saw-by move. Once F10 1502 is clear of the switch Adirondack Scenic RR RS-18u 1835 will couple onto the north end of the passenger train at Utica Union Station.
One of the 1000's of overhead switches on the San Francsisco Muni Trolleybus system. This one's on Van Ness and McAllister, with the wonderfully ornate Old City Hall as the back-drop.
