Cryptic clues = station name

[RDP]

Berwick (East Sussex).

 

[DaleCooper]

Cambridge

Not that...

Berwick (East Sussex).

...nor that.

 

[RDP]

Birmingham International?

 

[InkyScrolls]

In this station it sounds like you are somewhere else instead.

Yes, but Ware?

 

[D6130]

Bootle?

 

[DaleCooper]

Birmingham International?

No

Yes, but Ware?

Best attempt so far but still not quite there.

Bootle?

No

 

[Neo9320]

Edgware Road?

 

[RDP]

Wareham?

 

[DaleCooper]

Edgware Road?

Wareham?

"Ware" is not a part of the answer, I said it was the best attempt because it is an example of a homophone.

 

[RDP]

Kentish Town?

 

[Neo9320]

Derby road?

 

[DaleCooper]

Kentish Town?

Not that...

Derby road?

...nor that.

 

[RDP]

Kent House?

 

[InkyScrolls]

Holywell?

 

[InkyScrolls]

Prestonpans?

 

[DaleCooper]

Kent House?

Not that...

Holywell?

...nor that...

Prestonpans?

...nor that.

Hint:

In + this station = it sounds like you are somewhere else instead.

 

[Calthrop]

I had a thought; but the "answer station" (the bit to add to "in") therein, is long closed -- that way round, the thing doesn't work.

 

[johnnychips]

Inverness (In Furness?)

 

[DaleCooper]

Inverness (In Furness?)

Good thinking, sadly not correct.

 

[DaleCooper]

Inverness (In Furness?)

Good thinking, sadly not correct.

I should have added that to have the same format as the correct answer you would say:

Furness ("in Furness" sounds like somewhere else).

 

[RobertsN]

Leigh (East+leigh)

 

[DaleCooper]

Leigh (East+leigh)

That would work if there were an Inleigh station.

Hint:

It's a terminus.

 

[InkyScrolls]

Is it a National Rail station?

 

[DaleCooper]

Is it a National Rail station?

Yes it is.

 

[DaleCooper]

It looks like another hint is needed:

It's a GWR station.

 

[InkyScrolls]

So to clarify: It's a terminal station operated by GWR, which if preceded by the word 'in' forms the name of another station? If so, is this other station also a national rail station?

The clue doesn't say "another station" it says "somewhere else instead".

That's counter to what you've stated previously. You said in post #15,382, in response to (East) Leigh: "That would work if there were an Inleigh station." So now you're saying the 'other place' isn't a station after all.

 

[Neo9320]

Looe? (In lieu?)

You're right, I'm sorry to have misled you, it was inadvertent.

Looe? (In lieu?)

That's the one, your turn...
