db-to-gtfs

Convert the timetable data published through the DB API to a GTFS feed.

An example feed valid from February 28th to May 1rst can be found here.

Update: A complete GTFS feed for Germany (including busses, subways, trams, long distance, regional and urban rail) can now be found here: http://gtfs.de

Usage

$ ./db_to_gtfs.py --api-key <your api key> --start-date 2016-5-1 --end-date 2016-8-1

Method
