/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// The intent of this program is to serve as a tutorial for
// users of the serialization package. An attempt has been made
// to illustrate most of the facilities of the package.
//
// The intent is to create an example sufficiently complete to
// illustrate the usage and utility of the package while
// including a minimum of other code.
//
// This illustration models the bus system of a small city.
// This includes, multiple bus stops, bus routes and schedules.
// There are different kinds of stops. Bus stops in general
// will appear on multiple routes. A schedule will include
// multiple trips on the same route.
