Ruby Tuesday–Telephone Booth

CIMG0009-001

Something is wrong with this picture; and no, I have not been cutting and pasting! The yellow building is an old Swedish railway station, now a business office. They’ve done a good job of renovating the old station house. But the red telephone booth outside is of British model! I’m afraid I have no clue to WHY. (It’s empty – no phone inside!)

I think it must a recent addition, since I’ve not noticed it before. After a bit of research on the internet, I can only assume that it must be one of the 60 that British Telecom decided to sell a few months ago.

If there was originally a telephone booth outside that station house, it’s far more likely to have been one of these:
