Electric action to Pedal chests, pneumatic, now fitted with electric primaries with metal screw-cap magnets (probably tubular pneumatic originally), 11 bass notes on bass side of organ and 19 trebles on other side. All couplers are mechanical. "Off" pistons are black and "on" pistons are white, with label between Off and On, and are entirely mechanical in activation. Original double-rise reservoir extant and functioning, two feeder bellows removed. Elevator shaft installed beneath organ in 1987 resulted in legs of the Pedal chest on the treble end being sawed off and alternative support rigged by non-organ people. Similar modification to legs of reservoir. Concrete was poured under part treble end of organ to cap elevator shaft, with minor damage and spilled concrete on reservoir but function unaffected. Kinetic blower removed in early 2013 with replacement supplied gratis by John DeMajo. [Received from Bill Van Pelt 2013-03-16.]
