+## Conclusion
+
+Thanks for reading *The Definitive Guide to GTFS*. While there are many
+techniques that may take some time to comprehend in this book, the
+content should bring you up to speed with GTFS quickly.
+
+At first glance, GTFS appears to be very simple, but there are a number
+of "gotchas" which are not immediately apparent until you have spent
+significant time working with a range of feeds.
+
+The key takeaways from this book are:
+
+* How GTFS feeds are structured
+* How to import a GTFS feed to SQL and perform queries
+* How to search for trips, handle blocks and calculate fares
+* How to optimize an SQL database to minimize resource usage on mobile
+ devices.
+
+If you have enjoyed this book, please share it or feel free to contribution improvements or changes as necessary.
