    In any center with a similar function, the persons whose desks are closest to the screens are responsible for a subset of the system, (on the display in front of them). The person in the back (right of frame) is the shift supervisor.

    I am told the original 1970s BART communications backbone was a single-sideband, frequency-division multiplex analog coaxial cable system akin to Bell System L-Carrier. If true, the SCADA and block signals all ran over the coaxial cable.

Cowie Falls dam?

    Incredible sleuthing, www.flickr.com/photos/202763587@N04/. Water levels do change a lot around dams, so a definite possibility. According to the Nova Scotia Water Control Structure Database, Cowie Falls dam was built in 1929. The clothes on these gentlemen look a little earlier than that, perhaps?
