Database Manager on February 6th, 2009:
Updated through online information from Richard C Greene. -- Although the Sipe organ does use pipework from the Austin, this is not a rebuild, but a new instrument.

Identified through online information from David Engen. -- A large percentage of the original Austin pipes were re-cycled into the new organ.
