I believe the answer is:

depot

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

'the station' is the definition.
(depot is a kind of station)

'where ted gets upset about some of the police' is the wordplay.
'where' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen this in other clues).
'gets' means one lot of letters goes inside another (gets can mean captures or absorbs).
'upset about' becomes 'p' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'some of' says to take the centre (I've seen 'some' mean this).
'the police' becomes 'cop' (cop can mean informally mean a police officer).
The centre of 'cop' is 'o'.
'ted' with letters rearranged gives 'det'.
'p'+'o'='po'
'det' placed around 'po' is 'DEPOT'.
