            Ex LMS Stanier Black 5 4-6-0 44871 provides the motive power on the returning Cheshireman from Chester to Sheffield Brightside.

The outward journey had originated from Cleethorpes.

Here the venerable survivor of the 50 Guinea Special in 1968 passes Lowton junction on the now electrified line between Manchester and Liverpool just after a Liverpool service train had whizzed though.
