The
Kenya Railways Golf Club is a club which offers a unique golfing opportunity
for city dwellers. It is located half a kilometre from the city centre of
Nairobi with businesses overlooking it course.
It
was established in 1922 as a private club for the Railway staff only by the
Kenya Railway Manager's wife, Mrs. Couper, as the Kenya Uganda Railway Golf
Club (K. U. R. G.C.).
The
club opened its membership to non - railways staff in 1924. The clubhouse
shown above was built in 1925. The club has a nine hole course with 18 tees
and ten greens. The Railways is a fun course to play, especially if you are
lucky enough to have your game coincide with a train passing through the
course.
