Having run into Chester station the 15.38 Holyhead to Birmingham International is seen again retracing its steps at least as far as Saltney Junction where it will head southwards towards Wrexham and Shrewsbury. I have only one previous photograph of 158836 taken many years ago at Bayston Hill south of Shrewsbury. In this view, taken from Chester's city wall, the train is seen crossing the Shropshire Union Canal with the first of a steep flight of locks visible to the right.
