I was hoping, that this first vessel of B-454 type will also appear some day, so it is like especially for me :)
Similarly to B-59 "Oliwa", type B-454 derived from successful type B-54, was also delivered by Szczecin Shipyard -
- in two main versions:
at first, three vessels with increased accommodation area for passengers(?)(pilgrims?) were built for Indonesia:
B454/I/1 SAM RATULANGIE (sometimes also as "Sam Ratulangi"), IMO 5308512, 1962, for P.N. Djakarta Lloyd;

B454/I/2 HADJI AGUS SALIM, IMO 5404744, 1962, for P.N. Djakarta Lloyd;
http://www.shipspotting.com/ships/ship.php?imo=5404744
and a bit later:
B454/V/6 JOHANNES LATUHARHARY, IMO 6415295, 1964, for P.N. Djakarta Lloyd;
http://www.shipspotting.com/ships/ship.php?imo=6415295
Other version, with three vessels, seem to be 'downgraded' to regular general cargo ship:
B454/IV/3 ANDRZEJ STRUG, IMO 6403072, 1963, Polish Ocean Lines;
http://www.shipspotting.com/ships/ship.php?imo=6403072
B454/IV/4 WŁADYSŁAW BRONIEWSKI, IMO 6402688, 1963, Polish Ocean Lines;
http://www.shipspotting.com/ships/ship.php?imo=6402688
B454/IV/5 QIANJIN (or: "Qian Jin"), IMO 6417827, 1965, China Ocean Shipping Co.
http://www.shipspotting.com/ships/ship.php?imo=6417827
This last ship was also ordered by Polish Ocean Lines, launched as "Henryk Jendza", but finally was sold to China.
The name of Henryk Jendza (general manager of Szczecin Shipyard) was transferred to B-516 type ship (IMO 6613615).
