Will Larter left this review about The Commercial Railway

Handy for the station and lively on a sunny August evening. Four hand pumps, with Tetley's Cask plus the three in my photo, of which I went for Copper Dragon Golden Pippin (NBSS 3.5(. When I offered my card as payment I was told there's a 15p charge for card payments. I suggested that this might be illegal, but the lass said that's what she'd been told to say. Rather than have her (possibly) break the law, I gave her a £10 note and got £8 change; how quaint. I wonder what the bank charges are for a bag of pound coins?

Real Ale Ray left this review about The Railway

A decent pub only 1 mins walk to the railway platform. This was our last port of call after our crawl around Brighouse, and it did not disappoint. I immediately spotted Abbeydale Deception on handpump, which was excellent and only £4 a pint.
A good community pub, which included a private party in the front lounge on our Saturday afternoon visit, I salivated as I watched the staff bringing all the party food up from the cellar on big trays and plates and into the lounge.
The 3 other beer choices on our visit was Tetley, Copper Dragon Golden Pippin and Chinook Goose Eye.

The Commercial Railway is handily placed just down from Brighouse train station.
Once inside the main room is oblong shaped with the bar on the right side,the seating is comfy bench type and small stools,there is a smaller square shaped room to the front left which also has bench seating and small stools,both rooms are carpeted and have a very comfortable feel to them.
There were three real ales on the bar,i had a drink of Copper Dragon Golden Pippin which went down well,the other real ales were Tetley Cask and Derby Brewery Hop Till You Drop.
There is a pool table and background music was playing.
I found this to be a very comfortable pub to have a drink in,one i could settle in if not on a pub crawl.
