contents The transmission of a vertex $v$ in a (chemical) graph $G$ is the sum of distances from $v$ to other vertices in $G$. If any two vertices of $G$ have different transmissions, then $G$ is transmission irregular. The Wiener index $W(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the sum of all distances between all unordered pairs of vertices in $G$, which has another formula as the half of the sum of transmissions of all vertices of $G$. In this paper, we consider the Wiener index maximization problem on the set of transmission irregular trees of a given order $n \in \mathbb{N}$. We solve the problem for all odd values of $n$ and for almost all even values of $n$. Each resolved extremal problem has a unique solution that is a chemical tree.
