| This pub has re-opened under the management of Phil & Michelle and it is now a fantastic evening out, back to the Railway of old. A live band most Friday and Saturday nights (e.g. Riff Raff 20th March 2010, Guns n Roses tribute 26th March 2010), the annual Bike Show (4th April 2010) for the motorbike enthusiast with a road run during the day and a band in the evening (Roxoff), quiz nights on some Sundays, Karaoke on Tuesday, pub poker night (think that's Monday), reasonable beer, friendly patrons and good bar staff. I'm a regular and I think it's fab - come and see for yourselves!!! ALWr - 19 Mar 2010 14:14 |
| The Railway has now closed down. Rumours are that there's going to be a Travel Lodge style hotel on the site at some stage in future. Rod_Hariga - 21 Dec 2008 17:11 |
| Very expensive drinks, miserable bar staff and extremely rude owners. Word of warning if you are a band playing for the first time here, they will not pay you unless the pub has 100+ persons inside on a sunday and 200+ on a friday or saturday. They do not tell you this at the beginning of your gig so unless they give you your money up front do not play here! Even the regulars are fed with the owners of this pub and the way they treat bands aj27 - 3 Nov 2008 14:17 |
| The good news for all those of you knocking the Railway is that it's closing down, so you won't have to worry about its shortcomings any more. edchambers - 28 Jul 2008 22:36 |
| Once a decent venue now a grim dive. Has recently had a ridiculous noise limit imposed (110 decibels) I turned up with my band to play and our drummer alone was 120. Thing is, standing right outside the pub you can barely hear bands at all. This place is not going to last long. Miserable staff, overpriced beer, they are digging their own grave. Boycott. axisundone - 12 Apr 2008 21:38 |
