A photo indicates a "modern" console with roll top at front left. From the Church website: Trinity has a rich history of music. The first organ, built by Frank Beman in Binghamton, NY, was installed in the year 1908 and dedicated to the memory of Thomas Henderson. A special concert was presented by Dr. Charles M. Courboin, organist at St. Paul’s Catholic Church in Oswego. A new organ was installed in 1934, and again a concert was played by Dr. Courboin. The Cathedral Chimes were added in memory of F. Inez Baldwin. This organ was rebuilt and dedicated in 1958 with a concert by William Jones. A final re-build in 1976 gave us our present organ, a 20-rank pipe organ with 1,220 pipes. William Jones and Marcia McRae Wentworth were guest organists at the opening concert on Oct 24th.

Andrew Henderson on February 23rd, 2025:
Installed at a cost of $3,000, $1,250 of which was paid by Andrew Carnegie. The opening recital was played by Charles Courboin. According to the church website, the organ was rebuilt by unknown builders in 1934, 1958 and 1976.
