Well worth a visit. Although it's been renovated, it still has a traditional feel about it.

Must admit, the last time I was in the Railway about ten years ago, it was a bit of a dive. I'll make a visit there on my next pub inspection tour!

Used to go in the Royal now and again way back when. A lad called Lawson who was in my class at school lived there. However, the Lang's Arms was my favourite in that area. Out of the house, through the "underground" and hey presto! first refreshment stop of the evening!

the Langs was always last port of call before the friday night dance at the miners, which was a good night until the bouncers bounced me.
