The original Pelham 1-2-3 (although it too has been picked for inaccuracies) included bits of information about the how the TA operated. I found those points interesting, considering I didn't know that much when I first saw it, but I'm sure lots of regular (non-fan) riders would also.A few examples: The beginning with the new C/R: "Front and back. Shuttin' the doors. Rear section first and the first section. And the doors are closed. Now I'm checking my indicator lights to make sure all the doors are locked. I remove my switch key and back out the window for a distance of three car lengths to make sure no one's being dragged. 51st Street next stop; next stop, 51st Street. How'd I do? " "Each car in the IRT is 50 ft long." (not sure if that quote is exact) "Little gizmo known as a dead man's feature" "These are the assignment desks, one for each of the lines. This is the BMT, the IRT." I wonder if the upcoming remake will include similar info in the dialogue. |
