I'm just copying anything I find on the pre-NaPTAN stop onto the NaPTAN
stop. I've found at least one NaPTAN name that's wrong, and am using the
pre-NaPTAN name if there's a difference.
Does anything use route_ref? I was intending to start adding NaPTAN stops to
relations, and not bothering with route_ref.
