Despite family in the town, I've still not managed to get to this pub, but while googling about I spotted the following from a Manchester area CAMRA branch's recent magazine/website - Long URL below (I still can't be arsed with the whole tinylink stuff - if someone can't be arsed c&ping it into the address box that's their problem :~)

cheers MikeMcG __________________________________________ Stockport Supping . . . welcome to another new face on the local pub scene, this time at the Railway, Portwood. Alex Lord's permanent successor at this Porter Brewery flagship, is Martin Wood who took over on 1 November. I caught up with Martin on a very busy Friday night so was only able to snatch a few words. He comes to the Railway with 14 years experience in the trade, latterly running a club in Bradford and before that a long spell with Wolverhampton & Dudley. He told me that he was loving it at the Railway, a pub not only noted for its characterful beers but also its equally characterful locals, and no changes are planned to its successful operation. Beer quality has been bang on form so far. The Railway has also taken on a new chef from 1 December so the menu has been revamped as well - I already hear good things about the food. It's reassuring to see the pub remaining in obviously safe hands. ___________________________________________
