Train due for renovation caught at start of evening (7)
I believe the answer is:
educate
'train' is the definition.
('educate' can be a synonym of 'train')
'due for renovation caught at start of evening' is the wordplay.
'for renovation' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen this in other clues).
'caught' becomes 'c' (cricket abbreviation).
'start of' suggests taking the first letters.
The first letter of 'evening' is 'e'.
'due' is an anagram of 'edu'.
'edu'+'c'+'at'+'e'='EDUCATE'
(Other definitions for educate that I've seen before include "Give instruction to" , "Team" , "teaching style" , "Teach - instruct" , "Impart knowledge" .)
