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

'train toilet' is the definition.
'school' can be an answer for 'train' (thesaurus). I am unsure of the 'toilet' bit.

'hacks regularly used on return journey' is the wordplay.
'regularly' indicates alternate letters (regularly take one letter, leave next etc.).
'used' indicates anagramming the letters.
'on return' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'journey' becomes 'loo' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
The alternate letters of 'hacks' are 'hcs'.
'loo' in reverse letter order is 'ool'.
'hcs' is an anagram of 'sch'.
'sch'+'ool'='SCHOOL'
