The arrivalDay / departureDay was meant as offset.
Any train starts on day 0 (Q1). Without arrivalDay-attributes, everything
is regarded as the same day = day 0.
After midnight, any further atrribute arrivalDay and departureDay should
be set to 1 (Q2) .
The duration between start and arrival can be calculated as: "arrival +
(arrivalDay * 24h ) - start".

I thought that an arrivalDay = 1 should be repeated. But I like the idea
of Dani, that an intelligent importing program sticks to day 1until the
appearance of arrivalDay >= 2 and is able to deal with or without
repetition.

But you are right, I'll try to fix this point in the documentation.

Best regard,
Joachim
