getStoptimesByStop hangs and return neithers times nor error(s) about node-gtfs

Having the same problem. The query returns nothing.

I looked in deeper and realise what I got is actually "No times available for this stop on this date", so I guess the Error was catched by some function and did not return to the main routine.

Should we return an empty list instead of throwing errors in this case?

Because in my case, I have not integrate real-time gtfs yet. The bus stop I was using is temporary closed. So it exists in stops.txt and I can also find the route ID. However, this stop and this route has changed since the bus stop is closed.

Please let me know if I am not querying in the right order.

Thanks for reporting this. Your proposed fix was exactly what was needed to fix this method.

I published a new release with this fix.

This method isn't one of the best ones - as you may have seen it just uses todays date to look up service_ids for the specified stop. Ideally, it shoudl take service_ids as an argument - so I may modify how this works in a future release.
