+# VBB profile for `hafas-client`
+
+[*Verkehrsverbund Berlin-Brandenburg (VBB)*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verkehrsverbund_Berlin-Brandenburg) is a group of public transport companies, running the public transport network in [Berlin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin). This profile adds *VBB*-specific customizations to `hafas-client`. Consider using [`vbb-hafas`](https://github.com/derhuerst/vbb-hafas#vbb-hafas), to always get the customized client right away.
+
+## Usage
+
+```js
+const createClient = require('hafas-client')
+const vbbProfile = require('hafas-client/p/vbb')
+
+// create a client with VBB profile
+const client = createClient(vbbProfile)
+```
+
+
+## Customisations
+
+- parses *VBB*-specific products (such as *X-Bus*)
+- strips parts from station names that are unnecessary in the Berlin context
+- parses line names to give more information (e.g. "Is it an express bus?")
+- parses *VBB*-specific tickets
+- renames *Ringbahn* line names to contain `⟳` and `⟲`
