Chew Moor, 45596 'Bahamas' 'Southport Visiter' (08.55 Manchester Victoria - Southport) September 17th 1989.
Local newspaper 'The Southport Visiter' ran successful annual charters from the mid 1980's to the early 90's. Jubilee's, Black 5's and finally 'Flying Scotsman' were the traction with experienced Newton Heath and Southport footplate crews.
In September 1989, immaculate double chimney Jubilee 45596 'Bahamas' was rostered and here she climbing the stiff grade from Lostock Junction to Westhoughton.
A Jubilee in full cry, what a wonderful sight and sound as the three cylinder roar builds to a crescendo!
