Ran into model D433, S.N. B65486 today, for any Kimball fans.

The spring rail springs are weakening and breaking. Does anyone know why this would happen?

I expect jack springs from WWII era to fail, but why would these springs give way on a 1960's-70's piano?

It's a rare finding in my forty years experience.
