I would like to be able to get transit directions through the JS api, that is limited to a single vehicle type (e.g. Bus). This functionality is available on maps.google.com, but how do i submit the vehicle type as part of the DirectionsRequest?. Using the code below will provide routes via Bus, Train

google.maps.DirectionsTravelMode.TRANSIT

But if i want to restrict only to Train, how do i do it?
