It is good to use any clues available, but these labels are probably
to do with the advertising panels on the shelter. The basis of these
labels could vary between the advertising companies and be based on
very historic names from street furniture databases, so it remains to
be seen how useful they will be.
I assume the stop is 43000957202.
