well, the answers in there somewere, but no-ones named it yet!
I'm afraid I'm inclined to agree.
With puzzles where several answers are possible, one that meets all the original criteria should be accepted, even if its not the one the OP intended.
Otherwise instead of testing knowledge of stations it becomes a mind-reading excercise - something rather different.
they're right
and its Sandwich that i was thinking of, with Deal as the more popular one
I'm having trouble thinking of another one, so open floor.
I have 2 platforms, and I am on an electrified line, yet a third of my services are run by DMUs. Where am I?
I'll add clues if it's too vague.

Is it Hazel Grove, Woodsmoor or Davenport. Only one train a day is Electric, but have OHLE and each have 2 platforms.
Nowhere near...

What area is the station in
Aye, but that would make it easy
I shall give an alternative clue: it has a Grade II listed station building

Chester, oh wait... no

Is it on Merseyrail? (This is rhetorical as there isn't anywhere on the merseyrail network that fits the description)
Bidston: Wrong frequency ratio 4tph electric 1tph diesel
Ellesmere Port: Just no
Chester, Southport, Liverpool S Parkway and Hunts Cross all have too many platforms.
Kirkby and Omskirk have the wrong tph ratios too...

but Hunts Cross is Grade II listed.
Fareham is also Grade II listed, but has too many tph.
Hurst Green / Oxted have correct number of tph but are not Listed
Otherwise I'm still stumped.
Is there a rule to allow the thread to be restarted with a new question if no-one can answer within, say, 24 hours?

If there isn't this can just be an ad hoc question -
This station is the only one between Edge Hill and Warrington Central via Hunts Cross that is closed on Sundays.

Can we wait until we've found out whether any of my four guesses is correct ?
Sorry everyone, I was coming back from Cornwall yesterday and the traffic was very bad on the M5; I told my parents to take the A38 instead as there were 1 1/2 hour delays on the M5.
Anyway, enough of my stories, back to the matter in hand: unfortunately Nym it isn't in the Merseyrail area but martinsh, you have the closest guess so far, and it is in the Southern region.
Yep, it's Bexhill (one of the only SR stations I've been to!)

Stoke on Trent ?

Stoke on Trent has more northbound services than southbound, owed to the stopper to Manchester Piccadilly terminating there.
Too many platforms
