The Mallard railway locomotive broke the world speed record for steam traction in 1938 (which it still holds).
The pub itself is close to Whaley Bridge railway station which has services to Manchester.
Across the road is a former wharf on the Peak Forest Canal, hence the mixture of types of transport shown on the pub sign.
