Cryptic clues = station name

[DaleCooper]

Need a hint? Perhaps "tesla" with a lower case "t" would help. Tesla also has more than one meaning.

Was a tesla notably vandalised at this station?

Hint:

From Wikipedia:

The tesla (symbol: T) is the unit of the magnetic B-field strength (also, magnetic flux density) in the International System of Units (SI).

I missed the 478th page and spent a little while figuring out the clue you just gave
Newton?

No, the clue for that would have been "Was no new tesla vandalised at this station?".

Talybont?

At last! Anagram of T(esla) + notably. Your turn...

Thank you! I was close for ages but the final leap took a while.

First left, second right, past the twice-beheaded knight and a signal at danger for this station!

Spalding?

I'm afraid not. I'm interested in your reasoning, if you'd care to share?

I'd rather not but if you insist.

First left = l
second right = i
twice-beheaded knight = ng (no reason except I needed "ng")
signal (passed) at danger = SPAD

Put them all together and...

 

[InkyScrolls]

While it's not the right answer, that thought process is definitely something I could come up with.

Reading?

Reasoning:
"Knight" -> First left -> "night" -> second right -> "nig"
a signal at danger = "a red"

So "NIG" and "A RED" can be annagrammed to Reading.

 

[InkyScrolls]

Again, good reasoning but not the right answer.

Apparently this is proving rather challenging, so I'll give you a couple of hints.

Firstly, what might the word 'knight' look like if it were beheaded? And a second time?

Secondly, what is another way a signal at danger may be described?

Clifton Down?

Liskeard?

First Left
Second right
Two beheaded knights:
Sir
Knight
followed by an anagram of ‘a red’ for danger.

 

[InkyScrolls]

Both good but still no cigar!

I think it might be time to put this one to bed - unless anyone still wants to try, I'll post the answer later today.

In the mean time: 'First' and 'second' refer to the letters A and B.

Rather than give the answer it's usual to provide hints like what part of the country, a bit of history etc.

Correct! Was that one too much of a stretch? All yours.
