Hint 1: Operated by Northern which provides all of the station's passenger services.

Hint 2: Ignore the "Beeching" bit, that's just filler - (Beeching's report meant,) for example, the end of many stations like Seaton.

Act! Avoid arduous Brexit by revoking Article 50 or renegotiating the withdrawal agreement.

I know I've just had a go but I need to get this one out of my system and I think it's quite easy:

In readiness for sin 'ard one is needed.

Salfords (between Redhill and Gatwick Airport)

as opposed to Salford Crescent and Salford Central in Greater Manchester

If you get off here, you might think you are in New York, or even Dagenham, but not, apparently.

No, not Chandlers Ford.

Think of somewhere in New York where many tourists and locals go, and then think of places where you might go in Dagenham, or Redcar, or Dartford, or Darlington, for that matter.

No.

Another clue is that the station is not a National Rail station, but is on one the UK's tram networks.

Central Park (Metrolink)

Upon consulting with the almighty Google, it suggests that there are Central Parks in Dagenham, Dartford, Darlington and Redcar. The New York Central Park is a little less known... ;)

Central Park is correct.

As there are two answers, I'll leave it up to you to decide who sets the next clue.

I will guess Bare Lane on the line to Morecambe, as Pudsey is a Bear, which sounds like Bare

What about Bearley, on the line between Solihull, Leamington Spa and Stratford Upon Avon?
