Thinking about The Bahamas tonight with Hurricane Dorian approaching the Northern Bahama islands. Also keeping my eye on Hurricane Dorian for my own sake as my area of Virginia could be in for bad weather later in the week.

On a damp overcast morning in Somerset steam locomotive 45596 Bahamas makes hard work pulling her rake of 11 coaches through Witham Friary with 1Z70 0700 Paddington to Minehead West Somerset Steam Express, the last one of the season.
The train had stopped at Frome to take on water, was about 5 min down, and was regaining momentum on a slightly wet rail.

On a day like this with the southern part of the Yorkshire Dales under water, it's hard to imagine anything less like the Bahamas than this!

London Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) Jubilee Class 5596 (BR number 45596) Bahamas is a preserved British steam locomotive. It is named after The Bahamas.
The locomotive was built as a standard Jubilee Class in 1934 by the North British Locomotive Company for the London Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS). In May 1961, under the ownership of British Railways, Bahamas was the recipient of several experimental modifications aimed at improving the steam engine. In July 1966, Bahamas was withdrawn from traffic. A preservation society was founded and raised the money to purchase it from British Rail to prevent it from being scrapped. After repairs by the Hunslet Engine Company in Leeds Bahamas was transported to Dinting Railway Museum, near Glossop, Derbyshire
Jubilee class 45596 Bahamas runs through Ropley at night on the Mid Hants Railway (The Watercress Line) with a local goods. 23rd October 2020. More Jubs at - davebowles.smugmug.com/Railways/London-Midland-and-Scotti...

One side polished but there is still work to do on the other.
A couple of weeks ago I accompanied Mark to Wansford on the Nene Valley Railway where Bahamas had spent a week running services on the line. Prior to its main line move to Crewe it therefore needed a good clean. Mark and I volunteered for the duty on 31st August. That day we only had time to concentrate upon the brightwork and others including Mark returned later to give the paintwork a good fettle.
Time has conspired against me and I have been absent from Flickr for a week or so but should be back online for the next week.
