I'm testing graphserver for transit routing.

I downloaded a portion of Fremont, CA, USA from OSM's overpass API and
downloaded AC-Transit information (outdated though, a new one is
available directly from AC-transit's web site but I haven't used it.)
from http://www.gtfs-data-exchange.com/ .

By merging the GTFS data with the OSM data as instructed (via
gs_link_osm_gtfs). I also verified that the resulting .osm file
contains vertices whose name starts with "sta" (what does that stand
for?).

I tested transit navigation with GoogleMap which returns some bus
directions but I tried graphserver it gives me walking (or driving?)
directions.

I want to know if I'm doing anything wrong. How do I make it report
bus transit information?

Oh it works for me now. I realized my mistake was when doing a gs_import_gtfs I should use the same .gdb file name as the original road name. The mistake was due to the fact it wasn't apparent what the input and output were for each command.
