I'll add some stuff here too - station is called Bolton-Upon-Dearne, as is the town, not sure if it was renamed Bolton-On-Dearne in 61 or not, I'm looking for evidence either way. Page should be renamed Bolton-Upon-Dearne with a redirect from Bolton-On-Dearne but I don't know how to do that.

SacroHull: The name of the town has no bearing on it: our articles on railway stations take their names from the actual name of the station that is shown on signboards and in public timetables. This is often at variance with the spelling or punctuation used by the local community; the best thing for you to do is to find a
WP:RS that states that the station itself was renamed from Bolton-on-Dearne to Bolton-upon-Dearne, including the date of the change. Once it's confirmed (see
WP:V) we can
WP:MOVE the page. --
