HINT

Niblicks could well have been brought to the next closed station.

The hint was very useful because I was wondering which end of the Whitehaven, Cleator and Egremont Railway (aka LNWR & FR Joint) to enter. Since a niblick is something to do with golf (although I don't know what) we are obviously going the long way round and the next station must be:

St Bees Golf Halt
