OpenStreetMap
Added about half of Bus Route 10 Southwest Huntsville. Ways and relations for Buses are even more confusing to me than the bicycle relations.
I finally had to make a template for myself to follow, and hope that others who know more about Bus routes can cleanup my work after me.
My template for my local Bus relations:
type=route
route=bus
ref=# (number 10 in this case)
operator=Huntsville Shuttle Bus
name= (Southwest Huntsville in this case.)
wheelchair=yes
colour= (e.g. red/#FFEEDD) It's a light blue for this route but I haven't put it in yet. (would the American spelling of "color" work as well for this?)
and I added this:
bike_rack=yes
as all the buses now have racks on their front that can hold 2 bicycles. I wasn't sure how to do that number

Please create a new relation for a new bus route as you have hijacked a bus route from another guy ;-) I have created a new relation just for you:
osm.org/?relation=1070141
Please use this link above if you want to continue with this bus line #10. It may take one or two minutes to zoom in, but it gives you a perfect overview about the current bus route #10.

Thank you for cleaning up my work after me and creating the new relation. I have no idea how I hijacked a relation. It was unintentional.

The colour-tag only works if it's written that way. Most of tag names in OSM are taken from british english.
