Cryptic clues = station name

[RobertsN]

$100 at this station, they say.

(Sorry, can’t bold text for some reason)

EDIT: Refresh whilst posting....

 

[Strat-tastic]

I don't know whether it's a station, but I say Buckton.

 

[Calthrop]

I don't know whether it's a station, but I say Buckton.

Shamelessly riding here, on @Strat-tastic 's coat-tails: I'm not aware of a Buckton station: but how about -- the identical idea -- Buxton ?

Open floor if correct -- I've done none of the work, and am still without inspiration.

 

[John Griffiths]

Buxton?

[johnnychips]

Yes it is Buxton.
$= bucks
100 = ton
They say = sounds like

 

[Calthrop]

I got fixated on the word "grand" -- could find no appropriate station; and anyway I learn belatedly that in US slang, a "grand" is a thousand dollars ! Think I'd better "put myself out to grass" from this game...

As above -- open floor, please.

 

[Strat-tastic]

D'oh!

A heavyweight flock of sheep !

 

[Karl]

Crewe?

 

[John Griffiths]

Euston (ewes - ton)?

 

[Karl]

Euston (ewes - ton)?

I like it! It's got to be a winner?

 

[444045]

Euston (ewes - ton)?

You are correct sir - the floor is yours

 

[John Griffiths]

Thank you.

I hear the police in the Sandwich Islands say this.

 

[Calthrop]

Alloa? Open floor if correct.

 

[John Griffiths]

Very good but sadly not what I had in mind. It's more a specific police officer saying something.

 

[444045]

Would that be Bookham as per Hawaii 5-0 with Steve and Danny (Sandwich Islands)

 

[John Griffiths]

It would indeed. Well done 444, your floor.

Even pigs have to pay on public transport

 

[LSWR Cavalier]

Swineshead?

 

[444045]

Swineshead?

Sorry not correct

 

[Calthrop]

Even pigs have to pay on public transport

With no developments for well over 24 hours -- yielding to temptation to get facetious, just so as to post something: I take it that in this game, fictional stations are not admissible (though they are in at least one other "Quiz & Game" here). Otherwise I'd suggest the northern terminus of the Hogwarts Express; Hogsmeade (hogs being required, in order to travel by public transport, to contribute their "meed" of money to the operator of same)...

As no-one has worked out the original cryptic clue -

The Conductor is willing to take cash/card from the Porkers !

 

[RobertsN]

Fareham?

 

[444045]

Fareham?

You are correct - The answer was Fareham - `Fare for travelling` & `Ham from Pigs`

The floor is yours

 

[RobertsN]

This access makes a nasty scratching noise when opening.

 

[johnnychips]

Bristol Parkway - a parkway is an access and Bristol sounds like a scratching noise?

 

[RobertsN]

Bristol may scratch some itches, but it´s not the answer.

Edit: Bristol doesn't scratch any of mine

Edit 2: Ingenious thought process though.

 

[John Griffiths]

An Aldgate (LU) might creak a bit when you open it.?

 

[RobertsN]

Not Aldgate, sorry.
