Harbin
subway (planned)
 
According to Jane's World Railways, Harbin (formerly known as Ping Kiang) has a 5.4 mile metro. No one who has lived in Harbin who I've spoken with appears to know of it's existence. An unfinished 9 km metro line has also
been reported by Metropla.net. This would be in line with an article which reports a line to begin construction in 2003 which is based on "the original “7381” civil air-defense project of 10.1 km."  The report says the 24.6 km line could be opened as early as 2005.

Here, plans for a 17.3 km, 15 station LRT
is shown, but not much else. Digital Harbin also presents a feature about an "existing 10.1 km, 5 station existing tunnel",  and a submitted proposal to  develop it into a 24.6 km, 24 station subway, including 18 stations for the 17.5 km main line (suspiciously similar to the light rail proposal) and 6 stations for the 7.1 km subsidiary line.

Finally, in December 2006, ground was broken on a 20 station, 14.4 km metro. The route is said to follow the emergency evacuation tunnels left over from WWII. This Youtube video shows the subway construction and the old tunnels.

Harbin is also known for the notorious area 731.
