Hi, the yellow ones are tagged as crossing=traffic_signals highway=crossing. That red one actually corresponds to a node tagged bus=yes public_transport=stop_position, but other near by bus stops do not have the red circles.

It seems that there is not a full opencyclemap legend.

Thanks. Yes, it only show subway stop and don't show others even Light Rail or Tram. Besides, it seem not show all "road crossing". Therefore, I cannot guess what is yellow circle.

Do you have an example of a crossing that is not shown? Based on checking a few examples in my area I'd have guessed that all nodes tagged as "highway=crossing" display the yellow circle, but there may be other types I didn't see in my quick check.

The red one will be the railway station, in this case marking the mid-point of the area: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/41707454#map=17/22.44620/114.03532&layers=C

You can also get green dots, as shown here https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/378855199#map=18/51.91486/0.91892&layers=C (I'm not sure whether it is the bicycle=yes or the crossing=toucan tag that causes it to be green and not yellow).

On the OCM rendering, the dots turn from yellow to green color, when "bicycle=yes" is added to a "highway=crossing" node.
