2008-09-26 - Identified through information received via e-mail from Robert Bergford: "The instrument is on around 3 1/2" of wind, 2 reservoirs/regulators 1 horse power blower, electro-pneumatic action. Originally installed in a Methodist church in River Falls Wisconsin, removed in 1978 to a private residence in St Paul MN, and purchased and relocated to St Louis Park MN by Robert Bergford where it is being installed in the basement of my home. My goal is to keep the core instrument original, but add a relay and additional chests and ranks in the future." -Database Manager
