This thread has done well, still going!

I think that anagram is Rhosneigr, but I'm going to wait for confirmation. Open floor if I'm right.

Rhosneigr is right.

And why do you keep leaving open floors? It isnt hard to come up with anagrams (and if you really can't then use an online anagram solver) and kind of destroys the fun for people if you dont give stuff yourself.

Lye's certainly interesting for word games. Not only is it an anagram of another station, it's a homophone of another station (Leigh). Other ones like that are Johnston/Johnstone and Rhoose/Roose. And it's the opposite with Gillingham/Gillingham.

Floor appears to be open so...

This is a real GRUBBER (anag - almost!) - you can get NORTH, SOUTH, EAST and WEST out of it, but I haven't got a bleedin' scooby what this is. I don't think it's National Rail. Any chance of a clue...?...please...?...pretty please....?

And I spent the best part of an hour the other night trawling through all the station names in the 'bible' and couldn't find it.

A clue: it's three words, and two punctuation marks (neither of which is a comma, so you can ignore the one in the question).

EDIT: And yes, it is National Rail. And yes, I am using the proper name.

WHAT'S CROIPID?

A rubbish one I know, but it was actually quite hard to find one for this particular station.
HINT: there's no punctuation :)

Whoa, we've got two at once. Being as I didn't solve an anagram when I posted mine, I'll solve Class172's one: it's Droitwich Spa.

(And if you're having trouble finding good words to make an anagram it's not cheating to use an online generator like this one to set a question. It is cheating to use one to find the answer :P)

Still LOATHFUL IN WARM CONK.
