What is the update frequency of the complete GTFS bundle v.s. the individual “For Realtime” files? The latest GTFS bundle data appears to lag behind the /sydneytrains “For Realtime” data. For example, the latest bundle doesn’t contain updates due to the T4 line trackwork this weekend: the trip “607M.1346.149.2.T.8.84182254” has a different service schedule in the complete bundle (where it commences on 20250126) compared to the For Realtime data (where it commences on 20250208).
Hi @eric-ide, the complete GTFS bundle and the individual ‘for realtime’ bundles both update daily, over-night, AEST.
There may be exceptions where there unplanned service disruptions or major errors in the data - in these cases the complete bundle may be updated during the day.
Can you tell me the date modified of the complete bundle you were looking at?
Hey @Marcie, thanks for the response. Unfortunately I don’t recall the date modified of the complete bundle, although the earliest date in calendar.txt was 20250126, so perhaps it was that date?
I think it’s also possible that the difference I observed (due to the T4 trackwork) was unplanned - perhaps the ‘for realtime’ bundles updated earlier in that case?
