I like Wikipedia's assertion that "if Wanamaker hadn't died in ??? then
the organ would probably be even bigger". :-D
(The top manual doesn't have a corresponding division, so you have to
couple it to make it sound.)
I also love the way the manuals are tilted like that; it almost makes it
seem like it's to prevent the organist trying to escape from the console
or something!
