'Sydenham', a 0-4-0GT located in Quainton Road, Buckinghamshire in July 1969. The firm of Aveling Porter is more usually associated with steam rollers and other road vehicles. A small number of locos were also built encorporating features more often associed with their steam road vehicles. Sydenham was built for Beadle Bros of Erith, Kent in 1895. In 1924 it was sold to the neighboring Erith Oil Works who had it rebuilt in 1931. This firm later became the British Oil & Cake Mills. The loco worked until around 1954.
