The "914-1T" is not the announcement number, but rather the
identification of the switch playing the announcement.  This is used,
as needed, to trouble-shoot things in the network.  I can tell that
you are presubscribed to AT&T, and this call entered the network at
the 4 ESS in White Plains, New York.

Thanks for using AT&T!
