The has announced that will be visiting them in 2025.

Visiting courtesy of the Bahamas Locomotive Society, the locomotive will be running at the Vintage Road and Rail Day as well as the Back to the 40s event in June

1054 is usually based at the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway and actually was meant to be scrapped before the Second World War – but due to demand for a locomotive, 1054 was kept in service to support the war efforts.

More information on 1054’s visit will be confirmed soon.
