✅

The origin_station and destionation_station likely each point to a single station, so then you use a ForeignKey [Django-doc], not a ManyToManyField:

class BusStation(models.Model):
    bus_station = models.CharField(max_length=80)
    bus_station_identifier = models.IntegerField()

    def __str__(self):
        return self.bus_station


class Route(models.Model):
    origin_station = models.ForeignKey(
        BusStation, related_name='starting_routes'
    )
    destination_station = models.ForeignKey(
        BusStation, related_name='ending_routes'
    )
    data = models.JSONField()
    slug = models.SlugField(unique=True, null=True)

    def __str__(self):
        return f'{self.origin_station} - {self.destionation_station}'
