When I request LIRR gtfs-realtime.proto API I get FeedMessage response. 
In this response body it provides all TripUpdate Information 

(1) where sometimes TrainID 144 has track 4 for NY Penn station which is wrong for this train.

(2) there is no track number available for TrainID 1052 and 1054.

Code is below 

Can MTA verify that the data they publish is complete and accurate? 

We need to trace and eliminated these discrepancies

Thanks 

use transit_realtime\FeedMessage; 

$data = file_get_contents("lirr/gtfs-realtime.proto"); 
$feed = new FeedMessage(); 
$feed->parse($data);

I reviewed the saved data for the listed trains, for the month of June and all have the correct track assignments for Penn.

Track 4 assignments were only found at stations west of Penn.

 

If you observe another occurrence of this could you provided the exact time you observed an incorrect or missing track assignment?

If it is in fact occurring, it could help determine why, as current evidence indicates that, assuming the track data was wrong at some point, it is being corrected later.
