In GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories, the games' rendition of [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]] features two train lines which rolling stock consists of two-to-three car electric trains that unusually only utilize one track, despite the lines featuring two. The three-car train only appears on the Portland El, but the last car is always off the platform when the train stops, rendering it useless.

While the train travels from one station to another, the journey is played out in [[cutscene]] form and views cannot be changed by the player.


The Trains, resembling those of the [[wp:R68 (New York City Subway car)|New York City Subway R68]], are designed as standard subway trains complete with visible driver's cabs (with no driver) and an interior decorated with seating and advertising. Unlike Trains in previous games, the Liberty City Trains are indestructible; neither can the player commandeer the trains, limiting the player to riding them. While the train travels from one station to another, the journey is played out in [[cutscene]] form and views cannot be changed by the player. If a pedestrian walks into the train, they will be killed immediately, even when the train is completely stopped at the station. In [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories|GTA Liberty City Stories]], any vehicle which comes into contact with the train will explode on impact,but a glitch needing a [[PCJ-600]] can help the player survive the bike's delayed and impending explosion which will be activated at random and teleport the player to the nearest train track.

A design goof renders the trains on the PC version of GTA III with three bogies (trucks) on each car, the extra item being erroneously placed in the middle of each car.
