"Second tree from the station" then. Still a muddy grass verge.

But an official muddy grass verge.

I'd love to see the risk assessment that said it was safer for the
passengers than a lit bus stop on the High Street.

The risk assessment says it is a safe enough place, and is the closest
bus accessible place to the officially sanctioned stopping point for the
train that the bus is replacing. In these circumstances, it is the only
legal stopping point for the bus. On these services, from the legal
point of view, you are not on a bus, you are on a train, so, barring
instructions to the contrary from the TOC, you must be dropped at the
station, or as close to the station as is physically possible with the
vehicle in use.
