I imported them from the NPTG (Naptan Public Transport Gazetteer) a while ago. This was discussed on the transit mailing list. The area includes all bus stops which are part of a plusbus zone (which is a ticket that allows to take a bus after a train journey, I think). The original idea of placing all these bus stop in a relation did not work out as there are too many bus stops. The mapnik style seem to have a rule that renders every name-tag even if it does not know the object as it is described by the other tags.
