Cryptic clues = station name

[DaleCooper]

It's no saint but you might expect to see a nimbus over this station.

 

[DasLunatic]

I'm assuming you're referring to the Nimbus 2000, so is this Potters Bar?

 

[DaleCooper]

Blimey, I tried to make it unambiguous but you nearly found a loophole. Good try but that's not it.

Just to be clear nimbus doesn't refer to Zapp Brannigan's starship either.
