It's a template for cutting a groove. What could require a groove that shape?

I would say with reference to Stanley and steam engines. The gear tooth shape 'involute' hand chiselled into a cast wheel to give it its proper shape.

You are so close Gloria but it isn't for a key seat. Think of a flywheel like Ellenroad or Bancroft!

Not a ticket office for the railway but the name of the firm could give the impression of travel.
