`onebusaway_find_stops`Find bus stops near a location. Returns stops within a radius, each with ID, name, direction, served routes, and wheelchair boarding status. Use stopId values from results to fetch real-time arrivals with onebusaway_get_arrivals. Optionally filter by stop code (the number printed on the stop sign, e.g. "75403").

`onebusaway_get_arrivals`Real-time arrivals and departures at a stop. Returns predicted arrival times, current vehicle schedule deviation, vehicle positions, and active service alerts. The predicted boolean on each arrival indicates whether GPS tracking backs the estimate — predicted=false means schedule-only. Use tripId from results for follow-up onebusaway_get_trip calls. Stop IDs use agency-prefixed format: {agencyId}_{localId} (e.g. "1_75403").	Real-time arrivals and departures at a stop.

Optionally select an exact tripId or complete trips having any departure in a half-open GTFS-seconds interval, independently in every configuration; selection counts trip occurrences before and after filtering. Without selectors, returns all trips with no default cap. Block IDs appear as blockId in onebusaway_get_trip responses; obtain a tripId from onebusaway_get_arrivals first.

Optionally select an exact tripId or complete trips having any departure in a half-open GTFS-seconds interval; selection includes counts before and after filtering. Without selectors, returns all mapped trips with no default cap. For live predictions, use onebusaway_get_arrivals at specific stops instead.
