LMS Jubilee No. 45596 Bahamas is set to make a visit to Derbyshire this July and early August.
The locomotive will be visiting Peak Rail, which operates over 3.5 miles of track between Matlock Station and Rowsley South.
Whilst at the heritage railway, 45596 Bahamas will take part in both the 1940s Weekend and the Steam Gala.
Visiting between the 5th July and 11th August will also mean that the locomotive will take part in Driver Experience Courses and Pie and Pea evening trains, as well as standard services on selected dates.
45596 Bahamas visits Peak Rail thanks to its owners, The Bahamas Locomotive Society.
We are thrilled to announce that 45596 ‘Bahamas’ will be visiting us from the 5th July until 11th August.
We thank our friends at the Bahamas Locomotive Society for the loan of the locomotive.

The last time a Jubilee ran between Rowsley and Matlock is thought to be the LCGB High Peak Tour on 18th September 1965 with 45705 Seahorse (unless someone knows of a later date), so nearly sixty years ago. A very welcome return!
That’s really cool and yet really annoying. I have a driver experience booked at Peak Rail but it’s on August 17th
