Most, (all of the ones around where I live), local labs use machines,
and all(?) recent machines make a digital scan of the negative and print
from that. I can't think of a single place around here that you could
get a color print made with an "old fashioned" enlarger, even if it were
a "wet" print. The last lab doing custom b&w prints in an actual
darkroom closed a couple of years ago.

I'm not sure what you mean by "for all practical purposes", but I have
no problem finding places to produce wet-process prints here in
Toronto.
