Hi Paul, I see what you mean now. I dropped the forward/backward roles on the ways a few years ago. Recently I thought that they should be a help for the sorting algorithm, but your example proves they aren't.
I've been developing a script, which tries to use other good relations to fix the one it's currently run on. For that script to be able to work, you'd need the stops in the correct order though. It works like this: For a sequence of stops it tries to find other relations which have the same sequence. The other relation with the longest sequence in common 'wins'. Then it finds the ways adjacent to the stops on each end of the sequence, then uses the sequence of ways that connects the stops. We can work that way, because we have received the stops and the timetables from the operators, but it's the opposite of what you start with, when you have to get on the bus to create a GPX to get an idea about one the variation routes of a line. (After that you'd use the unstable plugin to add the stops that are already mapped). The script works quite well, as long as you have some 'golden' routes it can grab way sequences from.
