Wouldn't it be useful to add 6 as value here for extra-long articulated buses or double-articulated ones (with a break between 5 and 6 at 18 meters)? --Joschi81 (talk) 16:57, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- This is mass added, a potential import https://taghistory.raifer.tech/?#***/bus_class:length/
What you asked is still not the OSM format. Human-readable words should be used, not numbered id as found in standard GIS. Unless there is some special national classification.
There's overlap with bus=minibus . Should be considered with Proposal:Differentiation for routes of public transport in mind generally.
bus_class=* isn't used in the first place. So there's no need for bus_class:length=* yet.
It's uncertain if this should be an attribute, or a separate vehicle mode. Cf minbus=* , hgv_articulated=* etc.- The problem is some of the words may be fuzzy, or have different meanings in different countries

- Number of axles, and double-deckers aren't covered yet. They would have same length, and even shorter than articulated buses. Maneuverability is also affected by rear axles steering.
For completeness, the 25 vehicle_type:bus=* would be inappropriately extendeding vehicle_type=* (only needed to avoid conflict with vehicle=* ) / vehicle:type=* (meaningless *:type=* suffix) for historic=vehicle
Cf taxi_vehicle=* (I don't like it)
