The Diesel Traction Groups' Class 52 Western diesel loco, D1015 Western Champion, worked Pathfinder Tours (in association with the Irish Traction Group) The Irish Mail from Ealing Broadway to Holyhead.
D1015 passed Chester station right on schedule, in the glorious February sunshine. Here is the collection:

Thank you very much clay001!
Always aim to please.
The fourth picture may be a bit grainy, but I'm amazed that it's (currently) the most popular picture on my site this month!
