The original Taking of Pelham123. I grew up in NYC. I rode the subway to high school (Brooklyn Tech) every day. The movie is technically accurate and pretty close to the technically accurate book.

BTW - a friend 'in the system' explains the twisting action necessary in today's subway cars would make "The Gimmick" worthless.
