In 2006, the Open Golf Championship was held at Hoylake. All trains to West Kirby terminated at Hoylake to allow people to cross the track to get to the Open.

Ten years later, this year, the nearest station to the Open will be Troon.

Edenbridge Town is also an unelectrified station containing the name of a settlement plus a suffix, which handles more passengers than another station which has the exact name of the same settlement.
