I'm trying to import a GTFS realtime data file into R using the ProtoBuf package, but can't get it to work. This is what I've tried, but I think it's way off track.

library(RProtoBuf)

setwd("c:\\temp\\")
proto <- readProtoFiles("seq")

The gtfsway package reads the data from the site, like this question, but the authors say the package is outdated.

It's not necessarily 'outdated', I just haven't maintained it in a while. I just ran the code in the question you link to and it worked fine. – SymbolixAU Sep 03 '19 at 03:08
Sorry my mistake. I get many warnings and then a message saying the load failed. – Zeus Sep 03 '19 at 03:11
ok - If the package is causing issues please report the errors on the [issues page](https://github.com/SymbolixAU/gtfsway/issues) – SymbolixAU Sep 03 '19 at 03:14
that link is for your package, not RProtoBuf – Zeus Sep 03 '19 at 03:17
sorry, I thought you were saying my package is causing you issues. – SymbolixAU Sep 03 '19 at 03:18
[this question](https://stackoverflow.com/q/43746520/5977215) is also related – SymbolixAU Sep 03 '19 at 03:20
Thanks I'll work through it. I sent an email to your company info address. – Zeus Sep 03 '19 at 03:27
