No I'm not at Blackpool South either. (Answer 10)

Just to recap:
I'm not on the West Coast Mainline, nor am I at Didcot Parkway and my station doesn't begin with a vowel.
I am north of Sheffield, whilst still in England mainly thanks to also being south of both Carlisle and Newcastle.
You can't get a direct train to London from my station, I lie west of Huddersfield and I'm not at Blackpool North or Blackpool South.

So, any further guess as to Where am I?

According to the Lieutenancies Act 1997 (which I believe is the most recent legislation regarding the boundaries of local government) I do not lie within the Ceremonial County of Lancashire. (Answer 11)

As Neil's suggested, unless he's not been telling us something, as far as I'm aware, no he has not. (Answer 12)

Why don't you try actually asking a question instead of making random guesses?
