[mod.telecom] 301-785; query RE foreign pay phones

cmoore@BRL.ARPA.UUCP (02/13/87)

301-785 has just come to my attention in the Baltimore (Md.) call guide
as being Cockeysville (or Cockeysville service).  This prefix was previously
used for Terra Alta, a West Virginia place name, and served an area on the
extreme western fringe of Maryland.  What became of those phones along the
W.Va. border?  (There is also a 304-area prefix for Terra Alta; I don't have
my notes with me right now, but I recall that it's 304-789.)

In the U.S., pay phones are marked with area code and phone number,
something like this:
AREA 
CODE 302
555-1212
Because of the varied formats I have been seeing in print for any
given country (outside U.S. and Canada) for phone numbers, how do
I find out how the pay phones are labelled?  (assumes that these
other countries do put phone numbers on their pay phones)
