'''Super Bell Subway''' is the third course of the [[Bell Cup]]. The course is included with the [[Animal Crossing x Mario Kart 8|''Animal Crossing'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] downloadable content in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' as well as the base content of ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. The course is located in the '''Golden Bell''', a subway station,<ref name="RailMap">[[Media:MK8 dSBS Map Signs.png|Signs including the Super Bell Subway Rail Map, showing that the station is called Golden Bell]]</ref> going through both the station and the tunnels. Similarly to [[Dolphin Shoals]], this course has two music themes that change mid-race depending on whether the highest-placed human player is in the station segment or the subway proper. [[Highlight Reel]]s instead use an extended version of the station theme for the whole course.

The subway has [[Train (obstacle)|trains]] running along the tracks and has a winding layout. Throughout the subway, raised platforms can be used to drive on the trains. At the end of the subway, the  train track splits and has stairs that lead up back into the large area of the station with another set of stairs taking the players to the last bend before the finish. After the U-Turn is a straightaway to the finish line. There are also various spectators consisting of Yoshis, Toads, Shy Guys, and Piantas sitting, standing, jumping and waving in their positions.

==''[[Mario Kart 8 Original Soundtrack]]'' liner notes==
===Super Bell Subway===
''"The name of this course ('Ring-a-Ling Metro' in Japanese) gave me a really strong image, and I worked to create a song that you could imagine singing that title to. We wanted it to have a European metro feel, and so used vintage-sounding tones."''
===Super Bell Subway (Underground)===
''"When you actually go underground, the music suddenly shifts to a much more frantic pace, and Teppei Kawasaki really lets his slap bass run wild. It's also the first game that has featured that famous Mario underground motif recorded using live instrumentation."''

*This is one of three nitro courses in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' that doesn't have anti-gravity sections, the other two being [[Excitebike Arena]] and [[Animal Crossing]], and the only one that isn't a crossover course.
*Super Bell Subway is one of three [[new course]]s in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' to not feature [[anti-gravity]], the other two being [[Excitebike Arena]] and [[Animal Crossing]]; it is the only one of these to not be based on another franchise.
*It is revealed in a "Local information" map that the subway system is underground what seems to be the same town [[Rainbow Road (N64)|<small>N64</small> Rainbow Road]] hovers over.
*It is revealed in a "Local information" map seen in the course that the subway system is beneath what seems to be the same town as the one seen below {{classic-link|N64|Rainbow Road}}.
**The map has a key showing the location of several companies mentioned throughout the game (like "Bowser Oil" or "Yoshi's Egg Market"), but "Morton Construction" is listed with a typo as "Moton Construction".
**The map has a key showing the location of several sponsors advertised throughout the game, but [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Morton Construction|Morton Construction]] is listed with a typo as "Moton Construction". This map was the first mention of [[List of sponsors debuting in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe#Wendy's Car Interiors|Wendy's Car Interiors]], advertisements for which later appeared in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' and the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass]]''.
*The sound played when passing through the ticket gate is reused in ''Mario Kart Tour'' in [[Tour Tokyo Blur|Tokyo Blur 3]], Tokyo Blur 4, [[Wii DK Summit]], and [[Wii Moonview Highway]].
*Although Super Bell Subway is not present in ''Mario Kart Tour'', the emblem seen on the banners in the course is used for a [[List of badges in Mario Kart Tour|badge]] that was released in the [[2nd Anniversary Tour]] (and was present in the game's internal files beforehand). It was also used as the badge representing the [[Cat Tour (2022)|2022 Cat Tour]].
