Hi Allison,
It’s a good idea to split each trip up into individual trip_ids each time the bus gets to the end of the line. I think the way you’ve done it will work, but it’s a different way to do it. What does the headsign of the bus say for each trip? Does it change? When Google’s Trip Planner gives directions, it tells you to take the Bus XX towards YY. So if your headsign is something generic for the bus, it might not be that helpful to passengers.
Also, if you decide to include shapes in your feed, you’ll need to separate out each direction in order for the shape to be drawn correctly and then assign those shapes to trips.
If you have clock headways in your transit system (like a lot of small agencies do) where the bus always departs at the same time each hour, or buses depart from the starting point at a fixed number of minutes all day long, you can build your feed using the frequencies.txt file. This file can turn thousands of records into just a few lines per route.
In your examples, you didn’t put the column names for each field, but if you do split the trips, you’d put the final stop sequence at the stop_id and start the next trip with a new trip_id, stop_sequence = 1, and a new departure time.
There are several 3rd-party software companies who will be glad to assist you in getting your feed up and running with their software, but they aren’t free.
