I'm on a crusade to add all of the bus routes in my city (hopefully all of my country in a future), but there is no easily way as to "draw line here/add a node here as bus stop, tag as bus route X, rinse and repeat" as far as I know right?.

Would love some recommendations from other pros at OSM :)

Even if it is on the website, it's still nice to have it in OSM so it's available to mapping apps that use OSM data. It's very possible that OP intends to copy the information from the transit / city website into the OSM database.
