== Preservation == Four Jubilees have been preserved, two each built by Crewe Works and by North British. 45593 and 45596 were purchased directly from BR for preservation. The other two were rescued from [[Woodham Brothers]]. All four have operated in preservation and all have run on the main line. {{As of|2024}} two members of the class are operational and mainline certified: [[LMS Jubilee Class 5596 Bahamas|45596 ''Bahamas'']], and [[LMS Jubilee Class 5699 Galatea|45699 ''Galatea'']]. In May 2024 David Smith of [[West Coast Railways]] confirmed that he had purchased [[LMS Jubilee Class 5593 Kolhapur|45593 ''Kolhapur'']] and that the locomotive was moving to Carnforth for overhaul at a future date, while [[LMS Jubilee Class 5690 Leander|45690 ''Leander'']] was about to undertake an overhaul.<ref name=Trackside320>{{cite magazine |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |date=July 2024 |issue=320 |title=Main line future as Kolhapur leaves Tyseley for Carnforth |magazine=Trackside Magazine| location= Horncastle |publisher= Transport Publishing Network Limited}}</ref> A large number of parts were taken from sister engine 45562 ''Alberta'', which was the subject matter of a few preservation attempts, one of them even tried to persuade [[Sir Billy Butlin]] to buy it, that failed before she was scrapped in 1968 and most parts exist on preserved sister engine ''Galatea''.<ref>{{cite web |title=6P5F & 7P 45552 β 45742 4-6-0 LMS Stanier Jubilee |url=https://preservedbritishsteamlocomotives.com/6p5f-7p-45552-45742-4-6-0-lms-stanier-jubilee/ |website=Preserved British Steam Locomotives |date=4 July 2017 |access-date=7 December 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last1=Devereux |first1=Nigel |title=From the archive: Golden Jubilee |url=https://www.therailwayhub.co.uk/5342/golden-jubilee/ |website=The Railway Hub |access-date=28 December 2020|date=20 June 2019}}</ref> Note: Marked names indicate that the loco is not presently wearing them.
