===d1_trainstation_03===
The interior of an apartment complex. Takes a very long and specific path with lots of detail and dialogue to give players more insight into how life is in [[City 17]]. About half-way through, the player is detected as someone who should not be there and becomes a target of [[Civil Protection]] and is chased.

===d1_trainstation_04===
Continues the chase from the previous map across rooftops. [[Gordon]] is trapped by four metrocops in an attic. He is quickly saved by [[Alyx Vance]], their first encounter. Alyx escorts the player over to [[Dr. Kleiner]]'s lab, passing through a secret door with a poster of [[Breen]] on it.

=="A Red Letter Day"==
Kleiner and Gordon's first meeting, to fleeing City 17.

===d1_trainstation_05===
Alyx takes Gordon to Kleiner's lab, passing through another secret door. Barney arrives short time later, and Gordon gets his suit. Alyx is teleported to [[Black Mesa East]]. [[Lamarr]] interrupts Gordon's teleportation, he is teleported to several random destinations (a wasteland, Breen's office, and a coastline with an [[Ichthyosaur]]), the [[Combine]] become aware of his presence, and Gordon flees.

===d1_trainstation_06===
Gordon continues fleeing, but is blocked by wood planks. Barney appears on a platform, telling Gordon to escape through the canals via the refugee network. Barney also gives him the first weapon in the game, the crowbar. Gordon is able to break the planks, and enters the trainyard seen in <code>d1_trainstation_01</code>, pursued by Civil Protection.

==[[Route Kanal]]==
The first part of Gordon's journey through the City 17 canals. Starts with two cops hurting two citizens, and ends with the Airboat.

===d1_canals_01===
Starts with two cops assaulting a citizen, as another citizen watches in fear. Gordon kills both and picks up the second weapon in the game, the pistol. The player fights on through a railway and comes across a boxcar. Inside, a human and a vortigaunt help the player keep going. Gman is briefly seen on a TV that they are both watching.

===d1_canals_01a===
The player sees a crow fly right into a barnacle tongue and be eaten. This is the first time in Half-Life 2 a barnacle is seen.

Ahead is Station 12, currently being raided by Civil Protection. One citizen escapes the initial massacre and tries to plead with Gordon to help him, but the citizen is quickly shot dead by a cop. In the lower bunker of Station 12, an unknown woman tries to radio the station. Station 8 gets on the line, saying they heard the Station 12 raid, refugees are coming in from Station 9, and stations are being raided. The man from Station 8 is interrupted by something before he can finish speaking. The woman speaks again, saying that [[manhacks]] are being deployed.

On the roof of Station 12, two metrocops man a mounted gun. If the player kills them and takes over, they can kill many enemies approaching easily. If they stay too long, a Combine APC will come and shoot the gun with rockets until it breaks.

Further along, a citizen calls for the player and reassures them that there are other stations who can help. Metrocops attempt multiple times to kill the player with explosive oil drums.

[[File:Hl2 d1 canals 02 puzzle.png|500px|thumb|right]]
===d1_canals_02===
This map starts with a physics puzzle. A large wood board rests on a cement pipe and 8 cinder blocks are scattered around the room. The player cannot proceed because the only way out is high up. There are many ways to get past this issue:
#Put the cinder blocks on one end of the wood board so that the end nearest to the exit is raised high enough for the player to jump to the exit. (This is the intended way.)
#Jump on the far end of the board to temporarily nudge it downward and jump off the near end as it raises.
#Stack the cinder blocks and use them as a makeshift ladder/steps.
#In the previous map (<code>d1_canals_01a</code>), before going off the slippery downward ramp at the end, try to jump across the gap to the exit platform.
#Load the map directly (or {{ent|restart}} in the console). You will spawn just past this physics puzzle.

After this puzzle, the player encounters a hunter chopper. It takes every opportunity to shoot at the player as they evade it.{{clr}}

===d1_canals_03===
The player encounters another station (11? The number is never stated) with a single person inside. Quickly, a group of manhacks crashes in and attacks. If the player does not attack the manhacks (sometimes just distracting them is enough) the citizen will be killed. This is the first time manhacks are seen. After going through many more areas, there is another small "puzzle" here. The player has to turn a valve to raise the water level in a room in order to pass through it.

===d1_canals_05===
Gordon encounters what is evidently Station 6. Black Mesa East (possibly Alyx speaking?) radios this station to tell them to give Gordon the airboat. Before the player can reach the boat, they must pass through a small area currently being bombarded with headcrab canisters. After this, a citizen gives the airboat over to the player, and says to drive to nearby Station 7.

==[[Water Hazard]]==
The complete boat journey from the City 17 canals to Black Mesa East.

===d1_canals_06===
Station 7 is close to the start. The occupants of this station have been zombified by headcrabs, though. On the radio, a woman is heard attempting to reach Station 12 again. Ahead is another physics puzzle. Usually, the player will solve this by putting a few barrels under a ramp, so that they can jump across with the boat. They can also choose to just abandon the boat and go on foot. (good luck)

===d3_c17_13===
The player and rebels overtake a heavily destroyed building near the Citadel. Two striders have to be defeated before proceeding out of the building. Back on the streets, Gordon runs into Dog and Barney. Dog lifts part of the Citadel wall up, exposing a hole in the ground that opens access into the Citadel.

Entering the Citadel, to the final pod ride up to Breen's office.

===d3_citadel_01===
The player navigates a crumbling cliffside before jumping into the Citadel. They then get on a pod, because there is nowhere else to go. Taking the wrong pod results in inevitable death.

===d3_citadel_03===
The weapon confiscation field vaporizes every weapon the player has, except the gravity gun, which becomes supercharged, able to grab and punt living soldiers. The player uses their new super weapon to fight through the Citadel.

===d3_citadel_05===
The player is forced to take another scenic pod ride, seeing more stalkers as well as two Combine synths unique to this map. This time, they are spotted by a camera which sends the player in a special pod path up to Breen's office.

The finale of the game.

===d3_breen_01===
Gordon is now captured along with Eli and Alyx. Mossman has a change of heart and saves them all for the moment. Breen tries to escape the Citadel by teleporting out. Gordon stops this, and sends the Citadel into a meltdown. Gman comes and takes Gordon out before the explosion, seemingly leaving Alyx.
