Go in-depth on the history of the Shrine of Christ the King in Woodlawn, why it's worth saving, and how you can help in my new Chicago Patterns post: bit.ly/1JMzaW8
Here we see F.C.Hibberd 3294, an 11 ton "Planet" loco supplied to Creekmouth Power Station at Barking in 1948, from where it was made redundant before the power stations there closed in the 1980s and subsequently demolished.
It was saved for preservation, here seen at the Old Station museum at North Woolwich c.1988 before they got it working and gave it a coat of blue paint.
It can now be found at the Royal Gunpowder Mills, Waltham Abbey.

16-212 was part of a series of six Catalinas purchased from the US Navy in 1951. They were registered 16-211 through 16-216. Completely overhauled at Aviolanda Papendrecht, the aircraft were flown to New Guinea. Assigned to squadron 321. The 16-211 and 16-213 were lost in 1952 due to flying accidents.
In 1954, 16-212 and 16-216 were flown back to the Netherlands to replace the retired Supermarine Sea Otters of squadron 8 at Valkenburg Naval Air Station. The new task became SAR. On November 8, 1954, the first sea rescue mission was flown.
16-212 left the factory in 1944 with Patrol Bombing Squadron VPB73 of the US Navy. It was used for bombing and patrol flights over the Atlantic Ocean. About 1,600 flying hours have been made. In Dutch service another 1,340 will be added, so for a total of 2,940 flying hours.
On 4 February 1957 the aircraft was withdrawn from strength. Fortunately, it was not demolished, but started a new life as playground equipment at Bosbad Hoeven in Brabant. The Catalina has stood here for years. I myself can still remember a visit to this enormous playground with my primary school class. Unfortunately, the condition of the aircraft deteriorated and the maintenance costs became too high. The end was still looming: the rescue device now had to be rescued itself! Fortunately, Naval Aviation personnel took action. The Military Aviation Museum at Kamp van Zeist took the dismantled aircraft into its depot. Unfortunately, the splashing in the open air did not do the aircraft any good, action was needed again.
In the 1990s, it was again decided to refurbish the Naval Air Base Valkenburg. During this period, unfortunately, major damage was caused to the wings. During a storm, the wings stored in the open air were carried away on the wind. They were found badly damaged the next day. To prevent further damage, the fuselage, wings and engines were safely stored shortly afterwards at the brand new National Military Museum in Soesterberg.
In 2019, the only flightworthy Catalina in the Netherlands was sold to an American private individual and left the country. The Neptune Association Foundation, which maintains this aircraft, turned to the National Military Museum with an offer to refurbish the Catalina. To exhibitable condition. Flying will never be possible again, and that is not the ambition, but exhibiting is.
The National Military Museum, the Neptune Association foundation, and the National Transport Museum in Nieuw-Vennep, where the restoration is taking place, have joined forces for the project. It's a huge job but it would be so nice if it could succeed in the coming years.
Opening early 2022, at c.100,000 square feet, the STEAMhouse building boasts five storeys of state-of-the-art facilities delivering office space and business support activities to a community of small to mid-sized enterprises and larger businesses and organisations.
Originally built in 1899 as the headquarters of the Eccles Rubber and Cycle Company, in later years the Belmont Works factory accommodated the production of linen clothing, bedsteads and pianos. Following substantial fire damage in 2007, the building lay derelict for a number of years.
