Please hold the line...

So, we're into the final days of proof reading and cross checking references, figure nos, pages, text and formatting. The #KX200, #KX300 and #KX400 docs are ready, and I'm halfway through the 34 page #KX100.

Final call? Phonebox campaign revived for last-in-the-line KX100 kiosks – The Twentieth Century Society

For those of you who missed it last year, the #KX100 listing applications have been under consideration for a few months by @englishheritage.bsky.social, CADW, and HES. Given BT announced the KX range 40 years ago in early 1985... Fingers kX'd for a good outcome

Three of the 7 mk.1 KX100 kiosks on the platforms of Crewe railway station, all in 1991 Piper livery.

Visited in July & Oct 2024. 3 of the 7 Mk1 #KX100 kiosks at Crewe Station (there's also a lonely mk2) all in well kept 1991 Wolff Olins Pan era BT livery. Crewe Station is gr.II listed, so the KX are technically protected by that designation. @c20society.bsky.social @englishheritage.bsky.social

A mk2 KX100 with 1991 BT piper era Phonecard branding intact on the rear panel, peeping over the hedge

A close up of the 1991 Phonecard branding that survives on the back of the kiosk.

In July 2024, visited this mk2 #KX100 with raised roof and single panel rear in Earlestown, outside the Newton le Willows RM Delivery Office. Has surviving 1991 Phonecard branding. Phone worked, 01925 224 385.

Parcel lockers, kx100 and postbox. One day all of these will be redundant.

Migrating my KX posts over from the decaying birdsite.

In April 2024, in praise of BT's disappearing KX phone boxes, I visited Chester Station to see the pair of KX200. However, on the way found this rare flat roof, multipanel back Mk.1 #KX100. @c20society.bsky.social @englishheritage.bsky.social

Campaign launched to save ‘boringly ugly’ 1980s BT phone boxes The KX100 design caused controversy when it replaced the classic red phone box – but now a handful may be given listed status

Saving the great British phone-box... No... Not those red ones...
