I'm working with the GTFS data for the  SA  agency, specifically the  SMART (Main Line)  route, and noticed an issue with two trips:  t_5996464_b_84104_tn_0  and  t_5996659_b_none_tn_0

Both trips are missing  arrival/departure times  for stop  rank 8 , which is a platform. Since this stop is included in the stop_times.txt file with a distance covered value, it should have valid arrival and departure times.

According to the  GTFS  specifications, arrival and departure times can be  omitted  only if  start_pickup_drop_off_window  or  end_pickup_drop_off_window  are  defined , which is not the case here. Therefore, arrival and departure times should be provided for stop rank 8.

Could someone clarify if this is indeed a data error or if there's another condition under which times can be omitted in this scenario? Thank you for your help!

I have attached the missing field row for reference.
