Calgary has similar numbers on their bus stops, see: http://www.flickr.com/photos/24244...@n03/2865020006/in/set-72157607339923902/ I have been entering these as (for example): http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/297633017 Each stop has a 'human name' which might be duplicated across a number of physical stops (especially as interchanges), which can be found on (but is hard to 'scrape') the Calgary Transit website: http://tripplanning.calgarytransit.com "#4590 - SB CE s...@n OF BEDDINGTON BV NW" Another thing to note is that 'stop number' can also be pre-pended to for a information line telephone number. I'd be interested in how you plan to link the stops into a route, and whether you are using seperate nodes, or marking nodes within a way.
