Notes:
Until 1997, Des Plaines was owned by an independent phone company (Centel, then later Sprint). In 1997 Sprint sold this CO to Ameritech. In a very rare case Western Electric had sold Centel a #5 Crossbar switch in order to be compatible with the switches in Chicago (then mostly Panel) since Step by Step and Panel can't communicate well.
