These still exist, except it’s not a number you call, it’s a shortwave station that you tune into.
Check out http://websdr.org/ if you don’t have your own. From there you can play with various shortwave radios from around the world. The first one on my list is my favorite cause it picks up a lot of stuff.
For a good time, call 1194.
This graffiti was seen, around 1993, in various toilets, referencing the national talking-clock service.
1194 == “On the third tone it will be 3:45 and 30 seconds, beep beep beeep.”

Specifically 5, 10, and 15mhz AM. There are others, but you’ll really hear NIST WWV/WWVH if you’re in North America/Pacific.
You can still call wwv and wwvh.
555-1212 was the number where I was.
I still use it on websites that ask for my phone number for some gods unknown reason.
