Cryptic clues = station name

[Eagle]

Rotherham Central

 

[IanD]

Rotherham Central

Far too easy? Over to you....

 

[Eagle]

Sounds like a Big Mack

 

[Welshman]

Great Coates?

 

[Eagle]

Good but no. The spelling and capitalization is significant.

 

[Welshman]

Largs?

"Largs" is near enough to "large" and is in Scotland!

Sorry - I'll get my Mack.

 

[IanD]

Highley?

High=Big
Ley sounds like Lee=Lee Mack

 

[Eagle]

Nope, neither of you right yet.

@Welshman: Right... your first guess was much more sensible than that.

I'll narrow it down: this station is not electrified.

 

[Seacook]

I started by thinking that Mack was a reference to Mack trucks. I never thought of Lee Mack, but now that IanD has suggested the possibility, how about Grateley?

 

[Eagle]

Indeed! Didn't think it'd last that long, if I'm honest.

 

[Seacook]

Try this one,

Greek character flustered singer

 

[Eagle]

Musselburgh?

Although flustered = ssel makes no sense.

 

[Seacook]

Musselburgh?

Although flustered = ssel makes no sense.

I don't imagine you are too surprised to hear that it is not Musselburgh.

 

[Eagle]

Easterhouse? (clutching at straws here...)

 

[Seacook]

Easterhouse? (clutching at straws here...)

Not waving but drowning - it's not Easterhouse.

 

[Eagle]

Yes, it is one of them.

Edit: IanD has it. "Flustered" was an anagram indicator.

 

[DaveHarries]

Rho + anagram of singer

Going on that clue I am guessing Rhosneigr (sneigr => singer). Correct?

Dave

 

[Meridian richard]

Oh beaten to it!

 

[IanD]

Probably go as quickly as my last effort:

Fred discussing the Wonder Horse

 

[Meridian richard]

Western super mare

 

[Eagle]

West / on / super Mare?

Edit: beaten to it (albeit with the wrong spelling... "ern" isn't a word :P)

 

[IanD]

Western super mare

Just as quick as predicted!

 

[Eagle]

Just as quick as predicted!

Would have been quicker if I wasn't fixated on the word "champion" (I did have to check if there was a station called Beauchamp).

Edit: beaten to it (albeit with the wrong spelling... "ern" isn't a word :P)

Hahaha My iPad doesn't seem to like the word Weston!

 

[DaveHarries]

Begging your pardon guys but I was waiting until I knew I was correct with "Rhosneigr" before setting the replacement teaser! So try this for size:

Carry on teasing

Unlikely to last long but let us see.....

[Welshman]

Taunton

 

[DaveHarries]

Taunton

Yep correct. Thought it wouldn't last long.
