A:
There is no API for Google Transit unfortunately. You could probably scrape the output but this would likely violate Google's Terms of Service.
There are a few Transit authorities who provide APIs - if you want to cover a very specific area you might be able to go direct. Have a look at Programmable Web's Travel category.

depends a lot on your application and which api you use. Here is an article on connecting to a different api with rails, you may be able to adapt it, depending on which api you choose: http://blog.thembid.com/2007/07/12/using-the-digg-api-with-ruby-on-rails/
