Incident Report[]
Before Arkham Origins Incident[]
Arkham Origins Incident[]
8 years earlier, the Bowery's train station can be seen in the same location in Jezebel Center, but is closed.
Later on, while attempting to apprehend Firefly, Batman must rescue some subway passengers stuck on the Pioneer's Bridge. This is one of the first times where Batman gets direct gratitude and praise for his actions.
Between Arkham Origins and Arkham City Incident[]
Arkham City Incident[]
During his journey to find Mr. Freeze to make a cure for a deadly disease that most of Gotham, Joker, and himself are infected with, Batman needs to break into Penguin's headquarters, the Museum. But it is locked down and Batman is unable to hack his way in due to three communication jammers that are scattered around Arkham City.
After destroying the first two, he goes for the last one, located in a subway terminal beneath Arkham City, past the Bowery's subway station and tunnels. After fighting five of Penguin's henchmen, he destroys the final jammer and continues on his journey.
Another station is briefly seen in the Industrial District, as Robin takes down Black Mask when he attempts to escape by train.
After Arkham City Incident[]
Arkham Knight Incident[]
While tracking down the Arkham Knight on Miagani Island, Batman enters one of the islands stations, where he is shot by the Arkham Knight, and fights his way through militia goons and various tanks. Later, when attempting to clear the city of Scarecrow's fear toxin with the help of Poison Ivy, Batman must enter the new subway expansion on Founders' Island to awaken Aiyana, an ancient tree.

Trivia[]
- There's a very old poster of Solomon Grundy on the walls of the Arkham City subway, along with a Vicki Vale Show commercial and a Santa Prisca tourism commercial.
- There's a notable error with the Subway Terminal's location; when seen from the inside, the station has a round glass ceiling, and several buildings can be seen through it. However, its location on the map should be somewhere inside TYGER HQ (which has no buildings), and the glass dome is nowhere to be seen when seen from above.
- The station in the Bowery bears a strong resemblance to and was likely inspired by City Hall station in Manhattan.
