For GTA 1, Trains are designed as passenger based vehicles that allow players and NPCs to move between various underground and elevated stations scattered all over the city. The trains consist of a single locomotive pulling three passenger cars; players simply enter or exit a passenger coach the same way their do with any road vehicle, but can only do so when the Train has come to a stop at the station. From this point on, players may continuously ride the train until they alight at a station. | For GTA 1, Trains are designed as passenger based vehicles that allow players and NPCs to move between various underground and elevated stations scattered all over the city.

A minor quirk | A minor quirk in the PC version of GTA 1 is the ability to hijack Trains. In order to do this, players must first be within a Train's passenger coach. By simultaneously pressing the Ctrl and Enter keys, the player gains control of the locomotive, allowing them to control the train's speed as well as their direction along the tracks (forwards or backwards). However, the player must be wary of another Train along the track, as Trains are very sensitive to crashes; a simple collision can destroy both trains in an explosion, killing the player inside. Likewise, Trains can be damaged if they collide with any vehicle along the line, or sustain damage from gunfire, ultimately leading to them blowing up. | ||
Trains are only available in [[Liberty City in GTA 1|Liberty City]] and [[Vice City in GTA 1|Vice City]], as [[City of San Andreas|San Andreas]] is presumed to originally be intended by developers to feature [[Tram]]s instead; the feature was dropped in the final version of the game. Trains in Liberty City are blue, while trains in Vice City are red. | Trains are only available in [[Liberty City in GTA 1|Liberty City]] and [[Vice City in GTA 1|Vice City]], as [[City of San Andreas|San Andreas]] is presumed to originally be intended by developers to feature [[Tram]]s instead; the feature was dropped in the final version of the game.
