The Dimco Buildings are a historic structure in White City, London, just north of Shepherd's Bush. Originally built in 1898 along with Wood Lane depot, they were constructed as a power station for the Central London Railway (precursor of the London Underground's Central line). The architect was Harry Bell Measures. These buildings now constitute the earliest extant example of an electricity generating station built for the London Underground. The power station closed on 18 March 1928 when power for the line began to be supplied from Lots Road Power Station. The building was later used by the Dimco power tool company.

  • The Dimco Buildings are a historic structure in White City, London, just north of Shepherd's Bush. Originally built in 1898 along with Wood Lane depot, they were constructed as a power station for the Central London Railway (precursor of the London Underground's Central line). The architect was Harry Bell Measures. These buildings now constitute the earliest extant example of an electricity generating station built for the London Underground. The power station closed on 18 March 1928 when power for the line began to be supplied from Lots Road Power Station. The building was later used by the Dimco power tool company. Today the Dimco Buildings house White City bus station, located next to the Westfield London shopping centre, one of the largest in Europe. The Dimco Buildings are Grade II listed. The Dimco buildings were used as a filming location for the Acme Factory in the 1988 film Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and later served as the interior of the British Museum in The Mummy Returns. British girl group Girls Aloud also filmed the music video for their debut single "Sound of the Underground" in the Dimco Building on 2nd December 2002, just two days after they had been formed on Popstars: The Rivals.
