I did obtain about 5 TC5500 consoles and a B80
back in the '80.
They were rather large for their computing power
and no software was obtainable so I scrapped them.
I still have a couple of kilo's TTL-chips from them, with
their own Burroughs legacy partnumbers.
Very rugged design though!
Maybe you could get some old "B" hardeware but
software was out of the question.
