The 1971 film "The French Connection" has several iconic scenes involving New York City subway trains. Apart from its groundbreaking car chase beneath an elevated train, the film also features a sequence in which police officer "Popeye" Doyle (Gene Hackman) pursues heroin smuggler Alain Charnier (Fernando Rey) on foot, in and around an idling Times Square shuttle train. The car used in this scene, number 6609, is preserved at Brooklyn's Transit Museum today.
