However, their abcense on multiplayer is greatly appreciated, as you will not have to worry about trains coming out of nowhere and plowing you. Trains also run on 'rails'. (Some cars in missions also run on 'rails') As such they are impossible to move off their 'rails' and will not stop for any reason whatsoever unless coded to. Even an APC jammed against a wall, like those that form the edge of the station, will not stop a moving train.

[[File:R160B_Siemens_N_train.png|thumb|Left Image shows a train stalled right before entering a station on the Liberty City Subway. This only occurs when the player's wanted level is three or more. The player therefore cannot ride the train out of the wanted zone via the subway. The right image shows a track worker trying to enter a train, hunting down the player after obtaining at least three stars. Pictures taken at Easton Station and Windmill Street respectively (both on the (N) (Algonquin Inner Line))]]== Trains ==

The subway trains, consist of a form of two cars or three, are heavily graffitied, and have black and white internal CCTV cameras via which the player can view the protagonist during their journey.  The subway Interior can also be viewed, if you use the camera function on the player's cell phone.  Doing that, reveals the actual shabbiness of the interior, that is hard to see on security cameras.  The cars of the trains are based on 1966–67 [[wp:R38 (New York City Subway car)|New York City Subway Class R38 cars]], which were completely retired by March 2009; the bulkheads of the cars feature curtain route signs and additional lights seen only on pre-rebuilt R38s (rebuilt R38s feature only a flipdot sign). The signs consistently reference the [[Routes K + E|K line]] and "[[South Slopes|Sundance St.; Sth. Slopes]]" (implying [[Schottler LTA|Schottler station]]), which the K line does not serve.
