• The Reil company placed a small organ in the Hoeksteen in Soesterberg in 1951. When this instrument was replaced in 1968 by a new organ from the company De Koff, it was sold to the Kerk van Onze Lieve Vrouw van Goede Raad (Church of Our Lady of Good Council), Busken Huetstraat 29 in Utrecht. It was placed here as a choir organ. The church was closed in 1990 and partially demolished.
  
• The Reil organ was transferred by the Elbertse company in 1989 to the Sint Nicolaaskerk in Odijk. In 1999 it was sold to a private individual, who had it placed in the conference center 'Kontakt der Kontinenten' in Soesterberg.
  
• The organ was sold in 2000 to Reeuwert Tromp, who placed it in his home in Saint-Sauves-d'Auvergne. It was restored by himself in collaboration with the company Elbertse.
