英国高尔夫球的故事具有丰富的遗产。铁路在其受欢迎程度中发挥了很大的作用，贡献了该国最美丽的课程和令人惊叹的高尔夫球场。
In the 1880s and 1890s the development of golf as a sport and leisure pursuit grew enormously and the railway was quick to court the public who wanted to travel to play at the many golf courses that were being established.
The leisure traveller
The railway companies encouraged the formation of golf clubs in ‘suitable and popular’ areas of their networks and soon even the smallest lines could boast a connection to a number of golf courses.
铁路进入高尔夫球场的速度很快被确定为铁路公司建造的站点，较小的停留 - 甚至是新的线条 - 以满足这种新型休闲旅客。
随着该运动开发的关系，铁路公司还建造了新的高尔夫球场和俱乐部和赞助比赛。他们还通过高尔夫俱乐部的秘书发布了便宜的退货机票，到俱乐部会员和其他高尔夫球手在其线上旅行。
新的市场出现了
Railway advertising in the 1920s developed the idea of golf as a modern and glamorous yet accessible leisure pursuit. Some of the most iconic railway posters of the time featured golfers – both men and women – enjoying the game at one of the many famous golf courses the railway company had a connection to.
As women became more independent with their own money and time to develop their own hobbies, many of the railway companies encouraged women to play golf by specifically appealing though their advertising to ‘the Golfing Girl’ who could travel and enjoy the sport at one of the many courses served by its lines.
第二次世界大战后，高尔夫球场与铁路之间的联系开始下降。到20世纪下半叶的许多小型停留和线路所关闭的小型露天和线路被关闭，与他们相关的大型酒店销售。
A special railway connection
Gleneagles是冠军高尔夫球场的最大榜样，与过去和现在的铁路有着强大的联系。在这位珀斯郡山谷建造高尔夫球场和豪华酒店的想法属于Caledonian铁路总经理唐纳德马斯顿。该公司从事庆祝的高尔夫球手课程建筑师詹姆斯的服务，以创造该课程是该国最好的课程。
国王和女王的课程于1919年开业 - 格伦雷斯火车站，近100年的火车站已经将高尔夫球手和观众提供给这场冠军高尔夫球场。
该电台于2014年莱德杯及时升级，使其充分利用新的升降机，以及新的等候设施。铁路遗产信托的授予使其能够恢复并涂上原来的Caledonian铁路颜色。
