The entrance arch to Northgate Ponds
The Northgate Ponds first appeared on the 1899 O.S. map created on railway land, where they were surrounded on all sides by railway lines. The ponds are believed to have been created to store water for steam locomotives. In 2007 the area was improved as a local park, and became part of the Chester to Connahs Quay Railway Path. This arch is at the end of Northgate Avenue.

5600 Class locomotive no.6696 at Chester, 1960
This class of locomotive was built by the Great Western Railway in the 1920s as a replacement for the variety of locomotives of similar wheel arrangements taken over from the multiplicity of railways in the Welsh valleys, which is where the majority worked. Later a few did migrate to other areas, generally where short distance fairly heavy goods trains had to be worked.
This one may well have worked up from the Wrexham area. Of note is that it still displays an early version of the British Railways name which was very rare by this date.
