Amtrak  ·  April 2023

This feed doesn't seem to include GTFS-Realtime (GTFS-RT). Realtime data contributes to a better rider experience by letting riders know exactly when their bus or train is coming, as well as detour and trip cancellation info. It also enables Cal-ITP to support transit agencies with useful analysis tools. Please contact us at [email protected] for guidance on how to offer a GTFS-RT feed, or let us know if you're already publishing one that we aren't aware of.

About the April Daily Service Level Charts

  • These charts show the total hours of transit service described by the active feed for each day.
  • Since service levels often vary by the day of the week, it is split into three charts for weekdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.
  • Flat lines indicate consistent levels of service throughout the month.
  • Short drops may indicate temporary reduced service, such as for holidays, gaps in feed publishing, or potential inaccuracies.
  • Please reach out to our help desk at [email protected] with any questions.

About the April Identifier Change Charts

  • These charts show the percentage of stop and route IDs that have changed since the previous month.
  • Stop and route IDs are important identifiers for GTFS feed consumers to correctly parse feeds.
  • It is a GTFS Best Practice to keep these consistent between feed versions whenever possible.
  • More than 5% being new or dropped is a cause for attention, especially if there hasn't been a major service or route change.
  • Please reach out to our help desk at [email protected] with any questions.

Validation errors observed
Error Name Error Description Severity
missing_timepoint_column The timepoint column should be provided. WARNING
unused_shape All records defined by GTFS shapes.txt should be used in trips.txt. WARNING
same_stop_and_route_url A stop should not have the same stop.stop_url as a record from routes.txt. WARNING
same_stop_and_agency_url A stop should not have the same stops.stop_url as a record from agency.txt. WARNING
same_route_and_agency_url A route should not have the same routes.route_url as a record from agency.txt. WARNING
missing_recommended_field The given field has no value in some input row, even though values are recommended. WARNING
fast_travel_between_far_stops A transit vehicle moves too fast between far consecutive stops (more than in 10 km apart). WARNING
stop_without_stop_time A stop in stops.txt is not referenced by any stop_times.stop_id, so it is not used by any trip. WARNING
fast_travel_between_consecutive_stops A transit vehicle moves too fast between two consecutive stops. The speed threshold depends on route type. WARNING
stop_has_too_many_matches_for_shape A stop entry that has many potential matches to the trip's path of travel, as defined by the shape entry in shapes.txt. WARNING
stop_too_far_from_shape Per GTFS Best Practices, route alignments (in shapes.txt) should be within 100 meters of stop locations which a trip serves. WARNING
stops_match_shape_out_of_order Two stop entries in stop_times.txt are different than their arrival-departure order as defined by the shape in the shapes.txt file. WARNING
missing_feed_info_date Even though feed_info.start_date and feed_info.end_date are optional, if one field is provided the second one should also be provided. WARNING
