Notes

2008-03-01 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2012-02-25 - Updated through online information from Jack Umholtz. -- The chambers are both on the right side of the Nave, toward the rear corner of the room. The console is centered in the room on the right side, in front of the Great chamber, with the Swell Chamber to the right of the Great in the corner. The choir loft is to the left of the Great chamber in that corner of the room, resulting in the placement of the console centered between the pipe chambers and the choir loft. -Database Manager
