I'm not sure about the early ones, but my series-6 Ferrograph has one. You wouldn't fail to notice the auto-stop triggering either! Makes quite a satisfying mechanical *klunk*!

The child using the 'speakers to communicate was in the first one too - the telephones, and the nice Woodie in the front-room of the house! Couldn'y identify it, but I want one like it now!
