As someone who was WORKING there at the time, it doesn't explain "technical squat" either as far as how the TA operated. Neither the so-called "schoolcar" for the n00b conductor, nor pretty much anything as to accurately displaying any aspect of how the TA operated at that time. I won't even bother with the details of the alleged "rigging" would not have moved the train, at least the reverser key actually doing something was accurate, but not on that particular car class without DUMPING it. :)That all said, it was a GREAT movie! However as far as "learning anything" from watching ANY of it, I still cannot to this day even IMAGINE how the MTA coulda gotten their panties in a knot over it. The "information" presented was not only useless, but would get you spotted in a SECOND as "not one of US." But STILL, a *great* flick ... but those of us who served at the time *earned* our belly laughs over the minutae. :) |
