Factual error: To derail the train, the bad guys shoot the operator, which causes the train to speed out of control. This is a well-known fallacy. All trains use a "dead-man switch" that will stop the train if the operator dies or loses consciousness.

Factual error: Michael boards a commuter train at Grand Central, which then stops at subway stations at 68th Street, 86th Street, and 110th Street along Lexington Avenue. This is impossible.
