Summary

Description
English: LMS Jubilee No. 45596 Bahamas renamed to mark the 40th Anniversary of the South Atlantic conflict in the Falkland Islands.

At a ceremony on the 23rd July 2022 at the West Somerset Railway, 45596 Bahamas was be renamed to 45606 Falkland Islands. The original locomotive was built in 1935 but was withdrawn from Carnforth (10A) in 1964 and was later scrapped in February 1965. The new Falkland Islands nameplates have been cast from the original and will be unveiled by Richard Overall and Jim Fairfield who were both involved in the conflict. After the unveiling, the locomotive will wear its new identity until it returns North in September. The locomotives nameplates will then be removed and one donated to The Royal Marines Association – The Royal Marines Charity, for auction.

Unfortunately still wearing the old nameplate today!
