In the Top Gear Race to the North, Jeremy Clarkson has to stoke a steam train.

Which pub am I going to head to and make a fool out of myself tonight in Newcastle Australia?

B - The Wickham Park Hotel (The Wicko)

D - The Great Northern
 
A - The Lass O' Gowrie (The Lass)
B - The Wickham Park Hotel (The Wicko)
C - The Kent (Will refrain from using its nickname)
D - The Great Northern

I'm guessing Wickham Park, the others being too far from a train station. Then again I don't know where the lass of gowrie is or if there are any parks in Wickham..

Damn, you got it first guess! Saw some good bands at the Wicko. The Lass is just near Wickham station though, with trains going by the back fence often. Both are about the only good pubs left that aren't filled with idiots wanting to bash eash other up in Newie.

I suppose it's time for a more train related one though. I'll leave that for someone else now.
