RE: (rshsdepot) Telegraph sounder recordings?
As I remember the Morse code is somewhat different - and the difference in
sound would be dramatic - between the clicks of a solonoid of an ancient
land line - and the beeps of a relatively modern ham radio set. :-(

Steve,
Morse is still used by the various International Short
wave radio groups. It was not too hard to run an
Internet search on "telegraph sound file" One I picked
up can be heard on this web page,
http://pages.prodigy.com/MNPM98A/history.htm
Click on the Blue text at the page bottom.
Here is the resultant web page for my initial search.
I found over 30,400 reference pages.

I'll be willing to wager that if you provided one of
these folks the material, they might be happy to
create a Train order dispatch for you. Never hurts to
ask.
Luck to you.
