Girl found in mainline station (5)
I believe the answer is:
nesta
'girl' is the definition.
'in mainline station' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'NESTA' can be found hidden inside 'mainline station'.
'found' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for nesta that I've seen before include "woman" , "girl" .)
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
