CapeFlyer has no destination in the departures feed

[Caleb Sander]

Hi,

Looking at the attached departures feed, I see that there is a trip marked as 9101 (the Saturday outbound CapeFlyer), but it has no destination associated with it. I haven't actually ever seen it displayed in South Station, so I'm not sure what it's supposed to say, but presumably it shouldn't be blank. Please let me know what the intended behavior is so I can either work around it or wait for the feed to be updated.

Thanks,

Caleb Sander

For what it's worth, that behavior of the Departures feed is consistent with the CapeFlyer in the "old" Commuter Rail feed... the trip may show up (sometimes) but the Destination is always empty and any Stop south of Middleborough/Lakeville is also empty. 

For example this is from Aug. 21. (I save the "old" feed data to an archive every two minutes.)

The CapeFlyer doesn't appear in the API at all, but I'm hoping maybe next year it will. (I had asked about it earlier this year in this forum at the start of the CapeFlyer season but there wasn't any reply nor discussion.)

Caleb I think you should do a work-around, although it's probably a moot point since the CapeFlyer last day for 2016 was yesterday Sept. 5.
