In the early 50's, telegraph lines were still in use. Each tower and station had a terminal board and at times you would be asked to ground one of the lines so that a lineman could determine where the line fault was. My first night in a an interlocker tower during a thunderstorm was quite an experience.  Some men had interesting stories as to what they saw during a lightning strike near the tower.  Never saw ball lightning but heard plenty of stories. The terminal board would make weird noises and would sort of glow at times.  Never really got used to it and always stayed far away from it during a storm. Art, the devout coward
