I wrote this up quickly after one of the HN readers here asked for a visualisation after my first article:

Great use of OpenStreetMap data!

It would also be interesting to see the distribution of `bus_stop`'s with shelter and seat (full service) verses just a pole. Maybe amenity=shelter or covered=yes - I'm unsure if they're usually on the same node or a separate node (within x many metres).

In Australia there's a considerable variation of bus stop quality. There might be some interesting insights into where the minimum effort bus stops are (council/gov boundaries? transit deserts? who knows.)

Thank you for this! I just made my own map for my own city in like 5 minutes, pretty cool to see

The London tube very often follows the roads because in the early days they believed they had to and they could pay less to property owners.

It reminded me of this fascinating map: https://cartometro.com/cartes/metro-tram-london/

Do you just paste?

node["highway"="bus_stop"]({{bbox}});

It does nothing on my city.

Does OSM also store information about lines? When I click a station in Google Maps, it sometimes shows colored lines.
