meets

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'time one picks up at the station' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'seem hazy about the' is the wordplay.
'hazy' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen this in other clues).
'about' indicates putting letters inside.
'the' becomes 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects).
'seem' anagrammed gives 'mees'.
'mees' going around 't' is 'MEETS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for meets that I've seen before include "Makes contact with" , "Effectively copes with" , "sports gatherings" , "Joins with" , "Hunt assemblies" .)
