The Taking of Pelham One Two Three certainly seems to stand up pretty well
on a technical level.  The explanation of "trippers" etc is quite good.
Eventually the train is tripped by a red signal on the South Ferry Loop,
presumably on a speed/timer relay.

John Godey wrote the novel which is a damn good read.  And as a bonus the
movie was unusually true to the book.
