Afraid not. It's all gone rather quiet on this one, so I'll offer a bonus clue....and if nobody's got it by midnight tonight I'll give the answer and declare 'open floor'.

Bonus clue: Until 5-6 years ago there was an excellent brewpub situated opposite the station entrance, which was accessed by a foot crossing over the Up line.

Afraid not....fails on (3), (4) and (5).
However, you are geographically closer than any of the previous guesses.

Well done.... that's the one! Your turn to try and finish-off the very slow and protracted rebuilding of the Prince of Wales.

Neither of those.
Clue 5: It opened in December 2015 replacing a station sited a short distance away.

Rochester?
Correct.
The original Rochester station was located at the bottom of Star Hill but was relocated in 2015 to a site nearer the town centre.
Your turn.
