    Ha - that's what I would say to my 4-year old (at the time) when I needed to sit down and rest after a long play at the park! I am so glad that there is actually a clock for it!

    As there are still nine aircraft on the ground, this is just before the start of the race. "Oklahoma" is at the starting line. Clockwise from top, waiting around the circle at the right part of this photo: "Pabco Pacific Flyer", "City of Peoria" (disqualified), "Golden Eagle", "El Encanto", "Woolaroc", "Miss Doran", "Dallas Spirit", and "Aloha"

    In 1974, there were no flat panel displays. It's unclear what display technology was made to look like a flat panel.

    Westinghouse also built and sold power reactors and some of the expertise that made these consoles my have come from that division.

    This position has a red handset that is not present at the other consoles. My guess is that it's an elevator emergency phone. When there's a problem, the phone in the car might ring here. BART initially had a fire crew which (I believe) was for the Trans-Bay tube. It may be for fire dispatch. I think they've always had an auto-aid agreement with SFFD and Oakland but in the early days they had one BART high rail fire vehicle.
