The 029 I used is in the private collection of a mainframe service
company, Will. They are not open to the public and I know of no
computer museum in the area.
However, if you ever get up to the Baltimore area, there is a very
extensive computer museum https://museum.syssrc.com that is curated by
another member of this list. It even includes a working Linotype
typesetter; the dripping hot lead did a number on the lobby carpet.
(OK, it did a couple of letters on it too.) ;-)

Thanks, one and all, for the pointers to working keypunches.
Ultimately, the closest one was in Chattanooga and I now have

Hi Chip,
I'm wondering if you could tell us where in Chattanooga you found one? I'm
originally from that area and go there a couple times a year to see family. If there is a
museum or other public place with old computers I would like to visit sometime.
Thanks,
Will
