Default Possible PS chokes

I have eight of these Baldwin tone generator modules that I intend to use a chassis for various things. Each includes an 8 gang (actually two 4 gang) transformers which I believe were used in the frequency divider network. IIRC each has its own independent primary and secondary.

I don't imagine that they are of good enough quality to be used as input trannies nor probably of the right ratios but I thought that maybe one side or the other might be used as a low current PS choke.

alternately it looks like one might be able to take them apart and custom wind chokes on them. Do you think that might be possible? Not being a magnetics expert (or even reasonably competent) I don't know whether the common core might be a problem but I bet someone here knows.

P.S. I wonder what those numbers on the windings mean...
