Update: Catchy is now running the latest Metlink data again.
This update was needed so that alerts for the weekend would be shown correctly. Alert checks are now more robust too.
Unfortunately, Metlink have removed the file I used work out if a train allowed bikes. Hopefully they return it soon.

Catchy is currently running on an outdated version of trip data while waiting on clarification about some changes at Metlink’s end.
This shouldn’t cause any issues unless it's not fixed before the 26th.
