One of my favorite movies. The original 1974 cast included:

Earl Hindman
Dick O'Neill
Tom Pedi
Jerry Stiller
Robert Shaw
Hector Elizondo
James Broderick
There was a made for TV version in 1998 with James Edward Olmos and Vincent D'Onofrio among others. I did not see that one. The newest version has some heavyweight actors but the promos stress special effects not the human drama of the original. I'll be interested to see how it holds up.
The movie "The Taking of Pelham 123" was released in June of 2009. It is a thriller which stars John Travolta and Denzel Washington. It did well at the box office and is still selling well on DVD.
