Hello,

Looking at the 2019/12/20 gtfs release, I'm seeing something strange in the special schedules for the 25th and 26th.

calendar_dates.txt shows:

5,20191225,1
6,20191226,1

Schedule id #5 appears to be the Christmas Day service and schedule id #6 appears to be the Boxing Day service. However,

calendar.txt shows

5,20190902,20200105,0,0,1,0,0,0,0
6,20190902,20200105,0,0,0,1,0,0,0

Schedule id #5 indicates that it has service every Wednesday ('1' in the 'wednesday' column) and schedule id #6 indicates that it has service every Thursday ('1' in the 'thursday' column). As far as I can tell, this is an error. I have seen similar errors for special holidays before, but haven't reported them. I've manually patched up the gtfs to prevent the errors from being visible to users of my application.

Thanks,
Alan
