Fails on clue 4 I believe?

 

[Caxctus]

Not Barnstaple,Chapelton is about 4.8 miles away.The last clue should make it obvious.
Clue 5: This station is under 5 track miles from the last flat crossing where two train lines intersect at 90ish degrees in Britain.

 

[Caxctus]

I may have been wrong about the third rail but i dont think they use it on this line. Im not too knowledgable about third rail but clue 5 will give it away anyway.

It might be the greenford shuttle but both termini have 3 platforms.I'll go for West Ealing.

 

[London Trains]

It might be the greenford shuttle but both termini have 3 platforms.I'll go for West Ealing.

I believe that fails clue 1 as the Greenford shuttle is operated by GWR and everything else is the Elizabeth Line.

I believe that fails clue 1 as the Greenford shuttle is operated by GWR and everything else is the Elizabeth Line.
