Fantastic photos!!! Stacked, superimposed UC 10 switchboards...what's not to love!!!

Much of the equipment and trucks are 'obsolete' by 1943/44 standards but it makes sense they would use them for training. After all at the time they would be not more than a year or two old. Interesting they call the 8cwts 15cwts. It looks like it was done with not much thought so you have to wonder if that's what they referred to them as back then.

I expect the Diamond T was required to move the W/T No.9 set around...

(Can you possibly read the 19 set serial on the original photograph? It looks suspiciously like one of mine.)
