Information from: Bradford Organ Company files, analysis of the Hutchings by Alan Laufman, correspondence and notes by Walter Bradford and Ron Damholt, contract between Bradford and St. Joseph, dedicatory concert brochure. As the Hutchings (OCH #56523) was only available without its facade, parts of the Great 16' and 8' Diapasons were left behind when the organ was sold. As some of the Lancashire-Marshall pipework (OCH #11116) in its facade survived the steeple's fall in 1973, it was used to fill gaps in the Hutchings pipework. The only fully added rank was the Wiener Pedal Trombone. Source: Bradford Organ Company files+ 1998
