Not Poulton.
A run down: Within 25 miles of the coast between Bangor and Barrow via Prestatyn, and a junction between two electrified routes merging into one.

Birkenhead Central was the best guess to date.

TB, I saw Sandhills. And all the other answers as well.
I am going to be leaving you now because I am not sitting in a living room with two girls having a girls' night in! Selfish idiots; they have their own rooms and a spare one on the same floor!
I have waited this long - coincidentally until my 3,333rd post - because the correct answer has finally been.
OxtedL is correct. The brown tower thingy in the top right is the tower on which the "Frequent Electric Trains" sign can be seen! The whole picture is below, as is the challenge version. Also visible are the heritage tramway, and Woodside bus station.
Here are some statistics about my first 50 stations, complete with a map of their locations (red stations have been used twice), which really shows just how many places I've been to during the last year or so!
Very few stations used by anyone have generated so many guesses!

Closest to Bath: Bath Spa
Most distant station from Southend: Fishguard Harbour
Most distant station from Bath: Great Yarmouth
Most northern station: York
Most eastern station: Lowestoft
Most southern station: Lymington Pier
Most western station: Milford Haven
Number of English stations: 43
Number of Welsh stations: 7
Number of Scottish stations: 0

Number of non-electrified stations: 31

Last station alphabetically: York
Number of Day shots: 44
Number of Night shots: 6
Stations to have appeared more than once: Bristol Temple Meads; Blackpool North; Frome

Caterham - found because I could see the Southern logo either side of the station entrance, the bus stop looks like a Surrey County Council style one and Super 7 cars are something to do with Caterham.
