Tuesday 5th February 2019 saw LMS Jubilee No. 45596 Bahamas head home to the KWVR (Keighley & Worth Valley Railway) from Tyseley Steam Trust.

This day saw the Jubilee head through places such as Birmingham, Tamworth, Burton on Trent, Ilkeston, Alfreton, Chesterfield, Rotherham and Leeds.

After being postponed many times, Bahamas finally returned home for the first time since 2013 and ran on the KWVR in Steam for the first time since 1997.

With a successful return home Bahamas can haul her inaugural run from the KWVR to Carlisle over the Settle & Carlisle Railway and return on the 9th February 2019 and her second tour over the S&C to Carlisle on the 16th February 2019.

RailView filmed Bahamas at Willington, Derbyshire, located north of Burton on Trent and south of Derby, passing through 4 minutes early at 12:02 and Chesterfield, Derbyshire at arriving 6 minutes late at 13:23 and departing 2 minutes late at 13:27.
