Transit uses it own flavour of regex. Find the manual on STAR:s homepage, their regex is described in one chapter there. You can´t use 'normal' regex.

Thanks Örjan. I just wanted to know from a point of view of comparability to other regex dialects. In this case, as you say, the use of grep makes it a moot point, but it's good to know.
