'station one' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'can visit for small fare' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
an anagram of 'can' is 'nac' which is within the answer.
'small' could be 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size) and 's' is located in the answer.
'fare' could be 'b' (B is an example) and 'b' is present in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?
