Tiger,
The railroads DID play a major part in golf's evolution, but there were other factors too, including the role of Church ministers "driving" their flocks towards the railway station in order to find a golf course which was nearly always conveniently placed within walking distance to the station.

Alfie, a few years ago I discovered a book entitled Links Along the Line about the courses on the RR line in Lancashire.  It is an interesting read.  BTW There a number of clergy that even drive me to the GC.[/
