"Cheekies" not "Cheekys" - get a life you gay bastard!

Do not know who referred to the pub as Cheekys, it was actually called Cheekies, and then it was called Byrons. After that it was sold as a freehouse and given bacj its original name of The Railway. With regards to the underpants, the Police in Stockport would not leave us alone, they demanded we took the sign down, and at that time our free publicity with the Stockport press and Daily Star was drying up - so we painted underpants on one side and knickers on the other - more free publicity and we told the press that 'Quite simply, winters coming and they are getting cold'. For any other updates, and it would be nice to hear from old freinds, drop me a line at stv1001@yahoo.co.uk

So glad the twats that don't like the place stay away!

Howling infants are hardly representative of all children. Incidentally, as a result of the no children rule, it has no family atmosphere. It has no cooked food, as it did only a few months ago. Instead, it is full of real ale twats, who hog the bar and make it difficult for staff to determine who wants to be served, if not to add confusion over who is next. Furthermore, the Pennine range does not taste the same as when it was Porters. For example, the Sunshire is more like how the Sleeper used to be. The list goes on and on ...

For me, having no howling infants is a major plus point in a pub.
The Railway is an excellent pub with a great selection of beers from Pennine Brewery plus guests at weekends. It's always busy even when nearby pubs are quiet - I wonder why.

This pub used to be called Cheekys. It had a sign outside with a naked bum. Some chap painted underpaints on the picture, Nonetheless, this pub can be great!

The Pennine Brewery range is little better than homebrew. Going to the Railway can be expensive these days because only the Belgian and German beers are worth drinking.

Real ale pub - male pub - does not allow children
|

Porter’s Railway is an exceptional pub but it has a no children policy, which I find to be a displeasing aspect; other than that, the pub is flawless.

One factor that many other pubguides do not consider is the area where a pub is based. This can be of the utmost importance. Therefore, we have taken the opportunity to interpret the latest Indices of Deprivation, issued in December 2007. As this public house is located in Brinnington and Central ward, we inform you that an overall interpretation of the statistics for this area is that the ward appears to be exceptionally absent. This evaluation may be broken down as follows: The employment situation might be exceptionally unfortunate. Health is exceptionally ill-fated. The educational stance is exceptionally bad. Moreover, the environment itself is outstandingly lacking. Housing seems to be fairly positive. One might interpret the situation on reported crime as exceptionally deprived. Meanwhile, income appears to be exceptionally impaired. On another note, the postal area is outstandingly commercial.
