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.)

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.

Do you just paste?

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

It does nothing on my city.

Use the 'Wizard' on https://overpass-turbo.eu/, paste "highway=bus_stop in $YourCity" and click 'Build and run query'.

This obviously only works if there are mapped bus stops in $YourCity in OpenStreetMap.
