There's a Google Transit official API, you can read about this here:

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/directions/#TravelModes

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/directions#TransitOptions

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/directions#TransitInformation

You must create a route for getting to this information:

  directionsService.route({ 'origin': initial_pos, 'destination': final_pos, 'travelMode':google.maps.TravelMode.TRANSIT}, function(response, status) {
    if (status == google.maps.DirectionsStatus.OK) {

    //Setting the map to display    
    directionsDisplay.setMap(map);
    //Setting the direction panel
    directionsDisplay.setPanel(document.getElementById("directionsPanel"));

    //Setting the transit layer if you need 
    var transitLayer = new google.maps.TransitLayer();
    transitLayer.setMap(map); 

    //Setting the directions response
    directionsDisplay.setDirections(response);      
    });

Google transit is not a part of google maps API and has no api of itself. You could add request param output=json to the end of google transit request link and parse json, or even try parsing HTML itself.
