The Alberta Railway Museum’s St. Albert station has a permanent display of telegrapher’s equipment in a 1920s and 1930s office set up. The Museum also has the most extensive collection of telegraphy equipment in Canada, donated by APRA member Ab Krauter. Ab was also a member of the Morse Telegraph Club, Edmonton Chapter. The video below illustrates how a telegraph key is operated.
