the first railway station, "gatwick", opened during september 1891. in 1946, it was renamed "gatwick racecourse", to reflect its association with the neighbouring gatwick racecourse, but fell out of use for a decade after the opening of tinsley green, which was renamed "gatwick airport" in september 1935. the stations had a reversal of fortunes in the 1950s as a result of a government decision to expand and develop the beehive airport terminal into london's second airport. gatwick racecourse was rebuilt to serve the gatwick airport and is integrated into its terminal. on 27 may 1958, the rebuilt station, which took over the name "gatwick airport", was opened in conjunction with a regular train service and services to tinsley green were discontinued.
