Trip Element

The <trip/> element models trips in OneBusAway. Trips are directly mapped from entries in the GTFS trips.txt file from the GTFS feeds that power an API instance.

Example

<trip>
  <id>1_12540399</id>
  <routeId>1_44</routeId>
  <tripShortName>LOCAL</tripShortName>
  <tripHeadsign>Downtown via University District</tripHeadsign>
  <serviceId>1_114-115-WEEK</serviceId>
  <shapeId>1_20044006</shapeId>
  <directionId>1</directionId>
</trip>

Details

The fields of the trip element closely match the fields defined for trips in the GTFS spec.

A few important details:

  • The only fields that are absolutely required are id, routeId, and serviceId.
