Aqualung . left this review about The Railway Hotel

The bar to this old Station Hotel also appears to be called the Iron Road. The building goes back to the days when there were two stations at Evesham with a line running from Barnt Green through Redditch crossing the lines here and continuing to Ashchurch near Tewkesbury where it rejoined the main line from Birmingham to Gloucester.
It is primarily a live music venue. It was quite dark inside on my late Saturday afternoon visit and one corner of the large room had a light display on. There was a large TV screen showing the end of the rugby but only a handful of people watching it.
The bar has four hand pumps which had a house Iron Road, Sharp's Atlantic & Doom Bore and Hobgoblin Gold. I went for the Atlantic (£3.30) which was a rather pedestrian pint. This place promotes itself as a sports bar and music venue and it clearly is so I would be very unlikely to return.

The Railway is a three storey stand alone pub that is fairly close to the train station.
Once inside i went in a largish room that was empty and seemed a bit scruffy,this was probably because the pub was mainly used for live bands in the evening,these sort of pubs never look any good when empty.
I was surprised to see two real ales on the bar i had a drink of Wyre Piddle Piddle in the Wind and this was a very nice well kept beer the other beer was Tetley bitter.
I would have enjoyed this pub more if it was busier with a live group playing.
