The '''elevated and subway rail systems''' of [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]] as depicted in [[Grand Theft Auto III]] encompasses two ring lines, one elevated and one underground, which serves various portions of the city. Because the GTA III rendition of the city is reused in [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]], the railway systems remain virtually unchanged in the game, saved a few minor tweaks.

The '''Liberty City Subway''' is a fully underground rail line dispersed throughout all three of Liberty City's boroughs, serving as an interborough link. It provides convenient access to [[Francis International Airport, Shoreside Vale|Francis International Airport]] with a subway station at the complex.

==== Disused lines ====
In GTA Liberty City Stories, it is revealed in "[[Bringing the House Down]]" that a disused portion of subway exists underneath [[Rockford]] and [[Fort Staunton]] in [[Staunton Island]]. The system, cut off from the rest of the active subway system, consists of two lines, two antiqued subway stations, and two old subway train wrecks (one at the first station and the other at the last station).
In GTA Liberty City Stories, it is revealed in "[[Bringing the House Down]]" that a disused portion of subway exists underneath [[Rockford]] and [[Fort Staunton]] in [[Staunton Island]]. The system, cut off from the rest of the active subway system, consists of two lines, three antiqued subway stations one being an escape station and two old subway train wrecks (one at the first station and the other at the last station).


During "Bringing the House Down", the player is required to drive their explosive-loaded van to the abandoned tracks via a hole from the unfinished Staunton stretch of the [[Porter Tunnel]], and plant multiple bombs in the tunnel system directly underneath Fort Staunton to destroy the entire district. The player escapes the explosion through Fort Staunton's subway exit, which is locked outside the mission.

The subway system is not accessible otherwise, even with the use of the Porter Tunnel glitch, as the subway does not materialize at the access point from the Porter Tunnel; players who attempt to walk into the void fall indefinitely, while players who drive into the hole will also fall but eventually land back at the Porter Tunnel.

A short tunnel remains underneath the area in GTA III.
