An elevator system that may be ropeless is in a structure (22) and includes a guide rail (52) and a guide rail extension (54) that may generally guide a car (28) between a hoistway (26) and a transfer station (38) of the system. The rail extension (54) may generally project telescopically downward from the first rail (52) and toward the transfer station (38). The telescopic relationship between the guide rail extension (54) and the guide rail (52) may generally compensate for vertical structure (22) compression that may occur over a period of time.
