+442075841219, Toilets, Victoria & Albert Museum, London, United Kingdom

Busy on the weekends has a low but noticeable ring. There is always somebody in this area on the weekends as this museum is very busy. On quieter days you might catch a lone toilet goer as the ring will be more noticeable and the area is fairly secluded - giving people more confidence to pick up.

Payphone Telephone Numbers' List for UK Rail Sations

Following on from the massive payphone number release for Public Payphones in the UK (see the post here), we now have a drilled down list detailing of payphones in UK train stations. This new release is a great piece of information to the UK payphone enthusiast scene. Massive thanks to the person who took the time to send this over. If anyone has any lists such as this please send them on in here.

The majority of these numbers work and from experience, there is a good chance the payphone will ring out loud.

Phone Booth Micro Library, Lewisham Way, Lewisham Way, London SE8 4DL (no phone)

A project of the Brockley Society, this Red phone box has been turned into a book exchange - fitted with shelves and an instruction sign.  It's an example of BT's Adopt-a-Kiosk scheme which allows community interest groups to "adopt" a red phone box for the princely sum of £1, and turn it into something that benefits the community more than a phone would.  The Brockley Society apparently have three of these kiosks (at least according to this newsletter), from which they run a variety of projects.

+442087460911, InLink Kiosk, White City, London W12

What do you do when you have a payphone that nobody uses?  Use the telephone line to provide ultrafast broadband via wifi, of course!

BT's InLinkUK programme (the UK implementation of LinkNYC) is doing just that.

Take this (relatively unused) payphone next to White City underground station:

It used to sound something like this

And land a futuristic monolith over that phone!

Whilst they do offer UK landline and mobile phone calls, for free no less, over the Internet, they are not callable in of themselves.  Well, they are, but they just make weird tones at you (give it a go!).  

But what about the Wifi, you may ask, is it any good?  In fact, it's pretty flipping tasty!

Holy crap look at that upload speed! And the ping!

That's almost 10x the UK's average broadband download speed, and 34x the average upload speed!  Wow! Several people could perfectly happily stream 4K video simultaneously with that bandwidth.   Should you and twelve of your friends feel the need to watch Netflix whilst hanging around outside White City Underground station.

Gunmakers Company, Commercial Road, City of London (inoperable)

This phonebox is situated just outside the Gunmakers Company, Proof House one of the livery companies of the City of London The Gunmakers company is one of the few livery companies which retains a link to the trade for which it was originally chartered - and to this day is responsible for testing the safety of gun barrels for all guns in the UK.

The premises for the Proof House was moved due to an explosion which blew part of the City (of London) Wall out - so the question is, which came first, the proof house or the phonebox?
