Nick,

I am thinking those machines in question are weather map printers.

In the really old days, they were wet process paper which got dark with an electrical current between
two conductors, on each side of the paper, front and back.

These units might be of that vintage, but at the end of the wet process printing?

This appears to be the same equipment:

Looks like fun!

Is that an LBXD and control switch panel (and/or aux reperf?) on the 28ASR?
And I see multiple TD units to the left of that.
What are the units behind the laughing woman?
