The first one is correct. Often we have the verb match the closest subject, and elide the other.
So the bold here would be a correct sentence, and the brackets contain the implied verb:
There is one primary station and [there are] multiple secondary stations.
There is one over here and [there is] one over there.
There are three stations nearby and [there is] one further away.
