Jim Stettner on September 30, 2020:

According to a Reuter brochure, this organ was originally built for Simpson College in Indianola, Iowa. It was removed by Reuter in 2011 and for a time installed in the factory lunchroom. It was then refurbished, enlarged to 8 ranks, slightly reconfigured, and installed here in two stages with the initial stage in 2012.
