I would be more than worried if Portsmouth Harbour had any through platforms.

Okay - here's the next one:
1) The origin station has undergone one 'name-changing procedure'.
2) The destination station has an even number of platforms.
3) The journey is timed for <100mph max.
4) The destination station is north of the origin station.

Sorry! Please accept my apologies - I totally forgot about this game, as I'm sure everybody else did too.
Due to the absence of guesses over the last eternity, I've added an additional clue to hopefully get things moving again.
1) The origin station has undergone one 'name-changing procedure'.
2) The destination station has an even number of platforms.
3) The journey is timed for <100mph max.
4) The destination station is north of the origin station.
5) The train makes fewer than 10 stops between the origin and the destination.
Good luck.

7) The destination station's 3-letter station code is formed of 3 letters (obviously
) but has a letter that appears twice. ** Clarification for Clue 7:
In the station's code, there's a letter that appears twice, ie. 2 out of 3 times. For example: Moses Gate (MSS) or Saltash (STS).

2) The destination station has four platforms.
3) The journey is timed for 75mph max.
4) The destination station is north of the origin station.
5) The train makes fewer than 10 stops between the origin and the destination.
