Ok it was a deal discussed in 1954 & installed in 1955 Jim
This is great insight....Would a police dept. have any clot to get the
newer machine?

I'd say a 15 is more likely, but at 28 is possible. Early on the military
was getting the entire productions of 28s, and I'm not sure when that
ended and civilian deliveries began. And since TWX is a telco service,
if the company had any machines already on hand they would most likely
be 15s. I woudn't imagine they would give the customer any choice,
since TWX was 60 wpm; they would hold any 28s for private line customers
wanting 100 wpm service, until they ran out of 15s. I'm pretty sure
15s were still being made in the mid 1950s because the Model 19 was
still in the catalog - the 28ASR wasn't born yet.
But this is all speculative.
