Because this module tries to guess the mode of transport from line names, it is doomed to have conflicts. Right now, it is primarily focused on Berlin, until we have a more robust solution to find out more about lines.


## Installing

```shell
npm install vbb-parse-line
```


## Usage

```js
const parse = require('vbb-parse-line')
parse('M4')
```

This will return the following.

```js
{
	mode: 'train',
	product: 'tram',
	symbol: 'M',
	nr: 4
	metro: true  // buses & trams that run frequently & all day
	express: false // buses that skip stations
	night: false // buses replacing other lines in the night
}
```
