Developed to power Conveyal's web-based interface for scenario planning and land-use/transport accessibility analysis, R5 is our routing engine for multimodal (transit/bike/walk/car) networks with a particular focus on public transit
When enabling or disabling transit modes in an analysis, all routes added by scenarios are treated as trams.
There is no UI element to set the mode of a newly added route, but when an AddTrips object is initialized, its mode = Route.BUS. Applying this modification to the network does not copy the mode info into the new instance of com.conveyal.r5.transit.RouteInfo, which is where the router looks for it. So the field com.conveyal.r5.transit.RouteInfo#route_type remains uninitialized at 0, which in GTFS means "tram".
