Yes - I realised that.
I was thinking of a book on different time levels, as St Pancras exhibits three time levels - the original Midland Railway, the former Thameslink, and now Eurostar.


Sometimes there can be more than one possible answer to a conundrum!

I prefer your answer.

At the barrier one is lost and confused then yells "Not southeast?".

Here's a hint

At the barrier one is lost / and / confused then yells "Not southeast?".

Another hint:

The barrier referred to would not be found at a station or anywhere else on the railway.

No not that

This station is in Wales.

...and the first letter is M

Looks like Machynlleth. I simply had not thought of barrier as denoting Mach 1. I thought it might have been gate or fence or wall or similar with one letter missing.

Well done Seacook, it's about time we had one of your clues.

For everyone else's benefit:

Mach (one) + anagram of "then yells" minus "se"

I ran out of inspiration a long time ago, but here is a quick one.

Wise, familiarly, ejected from Marylebone before refurbishment

Considering the use of Marlebone, it must be a Chiltern station... and since you eject at high altitudes, is this High Wycombe?

This station sees trains in green and blue liveries, and contains the word 'ear'...

Earlswood?
