Historical version 3 of Category Bus Routes (view current version)
Some of us are annotation-crazy enough to want to annotate bus routes - where they go and what interesting places they pass. By the time you read this, we may even have started annotating and photographing [bus stops]?.
Hints on annotation
Dave Arquati asks where the bus stop numbers mentioned in the individual route pages come from. Many but not all stops have a four-character ID on a little vertical yellow sign attached to the top of the bus stop sign, near the sign that tells you the name of the stop, which routes stop there, etc. These IDs seem to be unique to a pair of stops, for example [bus stop 6G02]? on bus route 74 (among others) is two stops, roughly opposite each other, on either side of Fulham Palace Road. The stops in a pair are not always this close to each other, though, and sometimes there seems to only be one stop per ID rather than two. Chris Heathcote put us up to this - see his article on the subject (which includes a photo of one of the ID signs).
