"## Conclusions\n",
"* Most routes are mostly punctual\n",
"* Faster routes **don't** correlate with more punctual routes\n",
"* Higher frequency routes **do** correlate with more punctual routes\n",
"* Routes with higher ridership **do** correlate with higher punctuality\n",
"* Faster routes **don't** correlate with ridership\n",
"* Weather **does not** correlate with punctuality"

"## Sources of Error\n",
"* Time zones were ambiguous from the documentation\n",
"* Time of arrival at stops is very noisy\n",
"* Method for finding time of arrival could be much better\n",
"* Server downtime occured (once)\n",
"* Different formats (\"100_1_100\", \"100_0_100Acon\") were hard to match, largely ignored"
