timetables.zip output is empty when using "zipOutput: true"

Hi @brendannee --

When I use the zipOutput option, it looks like timetables are created without issue but the timetables.zip file is empty. Experienced when running command-line tool and when using https://run.gtfstohtml.com/

This is my config (uses default options from run.gtfstohtml.com), running on 1.4.10:

{
  "agencies": [
    {
      "agency_key": "lubbock-tx",
      "url": "http://data.trilliumtransit.com/gtfs/lubbock-tx-us/lubbock-tx-us--ttable.zip"
    }
  ],

}

I'm newer to this tool so I asked a coworker double-check, she reproduced on 1.3.1 with this config and noted that this option does work for her on an older version that uses mongo.

Thanks!

Thanks for reporting this issue. I pushed an updated version 1.4.11 which solves this.

Try it out and let me know if there are any other issues.
