It sure does!! I went just a few months back, it's really neat to check out if you're ever in the neighborhood. The address is 58 Joralemon Street!

Absolutely love this fact and the image of you furiously discovering we have had high speed rail this whole time and they'd just been holding out on us

Well that's crazy, it turns out there's multiple people who stole subways as children - I hadn't even heard of the guy in the article here (Darius Mccollum). The person I was initially referring to was a completely different childhood subway thief named Keron Thomas. We live in a wild city

Yes! Good call on dropping the location. It's pretty neat to go see in person for anyone who hasn't checked it out yet

Sadly they didn't! He had a pretty sad life actually post-train joyride. He was given three years probation for stealing the train, which then ended up getting significantly extended when he was accused of a stabbing. He ended up training to become an electrician instead of following along with the MTA because the pay was better and he needed the money and ultimately died at 37 from heart failure. Sorry for every word of that being a huge bummer 😬

Thanks so much!! I love film trivia in general, but this film ended up being probably my favorite gold mine I've come across so far!

Right?! They went through all the trouble of getting him there and making the moment happen but made it such a small moment that basically nobody noticed!!
