2010-08-19 - Updated through online information from Ryan J Boyle. -- Pipes, chambers and chests in original condition. The console has been renovated with electric stop tablets, and an integrated computerized switching & combination action. The original toe studs were retained in this renovation. Console refinished, new bench supplied. New piston slips have been made and several added above the previous specification. The Austin chamber relays and switches have been disconnected, but left intact. The chests were rewired directly from the magnets to the new switching system eliminating the old wiring. Harp pipes repaired. New chime action installed, original left intact in place. -Database Manager
