Crash commented about Broadway Theatre on Nov 26, 2008 at 12:59 pm

The organ from the Broadway was sold to Bob Bollinger of Oaks Amusement Park in 1955, the organ was installed in the roller rink and is still there sounding beautifully and is meticulously maintained, and is regularly played by Keith Fortune and Gary Russell. The dedication for the organ was on Thursday, March 24, 1955, at 8:30 P.M. There are 1242 pipes, 2525 magnets, 4700 pouches, and 500,000 feet of wire. What a mess that was to put together! It still floats above the skating floor.
