The NSE area, is that the area where a Network card can be used?

Roughly; there are a number of differences though.

 

[Buttsy]

Does the Cotswold line count as NSE area?

 

[martinsh]

It is, the Blackpool North line should be wired in 2016.

Clue 4) Of the four TOCs that serve this station, two of them serve London direct from this station, although infrequently. Both of these run other services from this station that do not serve London.
One of the other two runs services calling at this station only once daily.

Sounds a lot like Birmingham New Street.

Before even considering the amendment I made to clue 4, you can hardly consider VT and LM services to London Euston infrequent.

Likewise, I don't know any TOC at BHM that does not serve London, and provides just one train per day.

Sounds a lot like Birmingham New Street.

Has four TOCs, not five.

Motherwell is correct - TPX was the TOC that run once daily here referred to in clue 4
