Notes

2009-03-01 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2009-12-25 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- It is believed that the originally prepared-for stops were added, possibly at original installation; the horizontal Trompeta Real resonators were to be painted "aeroplane red." -Database Manager

2024-05-27 - The console and choir are located in the right transept. -Jeff Scofield
