I collect railroad logo golf balls. I started about ten years ago. I presently have about 80 different balls. Some are for the same railroad, but all are different. Is there any body else who collects this item. I have some extras to swap. I would like a Rock Island, Cotton Belt, Southern, L & N, and Family Lines ball. Or any other RR’s that I don’t have.
I am sure that someone has one in the bottom of a drawer someplace.
I have a UP one that I found in the park one day. Who makes them?
I was just about to start a thread about this.
I have several UP balls. I even have a Union Pacific Police Department golf ball. It was for a Police department golf outing in Omaha a couple of years ago.
I presume you have tried loking on ebay…
You can buy yourself some balls on the railroad websites.

All the major golf ball manufacters do special run logos. Usually it’s the railroad (or any company) PR department that orders them. Primarily used as give-aways to customers by sales reps. Some usually get doled out to company golf outings. And if the railroad has a company store they can get sold through that also.
