This photo of the TE is taken in Barlow Road W3 9LJ, near the junction with Lexden Road. It used to have ACOrn numbers until the late 1960s, but then had 01-992, 993 xxxx numbers. These were changed to 0208 numbers during the year 2000, and 0208-752,896,992 and 993 xxxx numbers are now provided by this TE. A KX200 telephone kiosk can be seen to the left of the photo, although its payphone has been taken out which probably means that the kiosk itself will be removed before long.
