Database Manager on August 8th, 2014:
Updated through online information from Ruth Draper. -- 2014 a Tierce was added to the choir, modeled after that in the choir division of Opus 1071. The 1950 contract for Opus 1216 included a Tierce, which was among the stops changed in the revised 1952 contract.

Database Manager on November 1st, 2008:
Updated through online information from Joe O'Donnell. -- The upgrade of the instrument included a solid-state switching system as well as combination action. Also, the Great is entirely located on the left side. Only the Pedal is divided (pitman chest on the right, Contre Bass and Posaune on the left).
