Nope. Here's a clue (I am in a good mood, because David Beckham threw up, in front of a live global TV audience of 37 billion people): think of tripe and diamonds.

Tripe and diamonds. Or if running bunker-first, diamonds and tripe. See how easy this is?

Its in LMS maroon livery and its a Jubilee because some were built by North British which had diamond shaped works plates.

Glatea and Leander were Crewe built.
That leaves Bahamas and Kolhapu, which were NB engines, but which one is it? I can see no connection betweenTripe and any of the other colony names.

The tripe connection is difficult. TRI.. because they have three cylinders perhaps? P.E. = powered engines. I am struggling. (That really is Tripe)

Let me put you out of your collective misery.

It's NYMR ("national" dish of Yorkshire = tripe) Austerity 0-6-0T "Antwerp" (the world's diamond-cutting capital).

Note to Ben: could do better, given your sig.... :wink:

Is the one at the front a k1 or B1. it looks like a stones generator on its right hand (left as we look it it) side. I'd say by the inside cylinder cover on the back one its either a Princess or a duchess.
