45596 Bahamas

I took this photograph at a railway exhibition at the Longsight locomotive shed in Manchester in April 1992.
It's the former LMS locomotive 45596 'Bahamas', one of the Jubilee Class engines which were named after former Commonwealth states and countries of the British Empire, British admirals, British naval commanders, and finally, ships in the British Navy named after characters from Greek Mythology. It is now based at the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway.
