The cutting carries two pairs of railway lines from Chester into and from Wales. One pair of lines carries the railway to Wrexham and mid Wales and the other pair carries the mainline along the north Wales coast to Holyhead. The steam locomotive is the former GWR King George V 6000 hauling a special train, "The Mayflower", from Hereford to Chester.
