Money Train (1995)

Factual error: After John and Charlie jump off the money train, it reverses and derails onto its side, and rolls for some distance in the tunnel, knocking down all support columns in its path. Those columns are not as flimsy as the film suggests, and would actually have sliced the train and/or cause it to buckle, as had happened with a similarly derailed train near the 14th Street-Union Square station in 1991.

Money Train (1995)

Plot hole: When Charlie sets out to hijack the money train, he jumps off the platform onto the tracks as it arrives, in plain sight of the driver and other passengers at the station, and only puts his mask on once he's in position on the tracks. The train conveniently stops right over top of Charlie, allowing him to enter through the conveniently-placed grate on the train's floor. (01:17:15)
