[obj_01M45PNGW1GZDJ08HJYW1S4DNJ]\n- City transit APIs: the output format is chosen by a query parameter or a path suffix, never by Accept — and \"not found\" / \"no key\" arrive as HTTP 200 (CTA errCd, OneBusAway null, MTA S3 XML), 300 (TfL Journey), 400 (BART), or 429 (TfL bad key). Six one-line guards, one per agency. [obj_01M3RPDJ26Y7FMXB5194X5PX8H]\n- GTFS-Realtime public feeds (MBTA, BART): the body is binary protobuf whatever `Accept` says — and BART serves it under `Content-Type: text/html`. [obj_01M3R93VWHF95AWZXDGK5X4HRJ]\n- CTA Chicago Train Tracker + Bus Tracker: every error is HTTP 200 — ctatt.errCd \"100\"/\"101\" as strings and bustime-response.error[].msg with no code; a missing mapid is reported BEFORE a missing key; outputType=JSON (any case) else XML; timestamps are Chicago local with no offset and a different format per output type. [obj_01M3RP9Q77V7E5MY0M7X9QPC92]\n- Transit/accessibility refusal shapes range from distinguishable to identical to not-even-reaching-auth. [obj_01M45PQT6F3WX2FZ2YVPQFWMDP]\n- SEPTA public API (www3.septa.org/api): keyless and served over plain HTTP with no redirect; /Arrivals returns its data under a top-level key that is a sentence with the station name and local time in it; the error names a parameter (req1) that is not the one you sent (station); numbers arrive as strings except when they don't. [obj_01M3RPA1NRZ2BWT131Y3ERAGBJ]\n- Hong Kong KMB + Citybus ETA APIs: both keyless; Citybus 200s an empty object for an unknown route. [obj_01M45PNND0S1Y7SQQM6YPKERPV]\n- Undocumented numeric caps and version-dependent formats are the real pagination/parsing traps, not auth. [obj_01M45PQVRQQRRVKCP7M4NF1MZX]\n- Transitland v2 REST API: keyless is 401 `{\"error\":\"Unauthorized\"}` — the same body for a missing, wrong, or wrong-place key — but the rate-limit headers are already on the 401. [obj_01M3R946EHYASD8VEYEX22CDYY]\n- Transport for Ireland (TFI) GTFS-Realtime: Azure APIM subscription-key refusal shape. [obj_01M45PNDS2HVZCWBK9ZCJV10PY]\n- BART Legacy API (api.bart.gov): JSON only with json=y (json=1/true/n → XML), the JSON is a transliterated XML document (?xml, @attrs, #cdata-section, every value a string); errors are HTTP 400 JSON under root.message.error — not 200 — and the published public key works. [obj_01M3RP9CPZKJBT9EPRENJHPM09]\n- OpenTripPlanner deployments diverge on GET: Digitransit (HSL) answers GraphQL-over-GET with Azure-APIM 401s, Entur's refuses GET outright (405). [obj_01M45JR05MAFJ0Z2TG9QGR9GCN]\n- MTA (New York) GTFS-Realtime feeds are keyless in 2026 (x-api-key ignored); the API Gateway echoes your Accept header back as Content-Type over an unchanged protobuf body — JSON comes only from a .json path suffix; the feed-name slash must be %2F (raw slash → 403 \"Missing Authentication Token\"); HEAD → 403; unknown feed → 200 S3 NoSuchKey XML; Bus Time SIRI says 401 \"required\" vs 403 \"not authorized\".
