The system used in Istanbul cannot be regarded as a rapid-transit underground railway network, It was similar to the cars that travel up the Alps by cable, only it was in a "very" steep tunnel running up the side of a hill. In 1830 the Crown St passenger tunnel, the first along with adjacent 1.26 mile long Wapping Goods Tunnel, were the first tunnel bored under a metropolis. It was opened in Liverpool with a station either end. The stations were not underground. In 1836 the 1.25 mile Liverpool Lime St tunnel was opened, with a station either end. The stations were not underground.
The second oldest true underground railway "network" was the Mersey Railway in 1886. A very long tunnel under the River Mersey with underground stations either side in Liverpool and Birkenhead. It was continually extended above and below ground and is now a part of Merseyrail.
