Imagine this: It’s past midnight in NYC. You’re standing on the subway platform, half-asleep, waiting for that last train to drag you home. Then out of nowhere—BAM! Glass shatters, the ground shakes, and a subway train comes crashing through the station like it’s making a guest appearance in Fast & Furious. But here’s the kicker—it’s not even a runaway train. It was stolen.

Yup, that’s right. A train-jacking. Some real-life Grand Theft Auto, but with… public transportation. According to the NYPD, on September 12th at the Briarwood station in Queens, two suspects decided they were going to spice up their night by taking the MTA for a joyride. Forget cabs or Ubers—apparently, stealing a multi-ton subway train was the way to go.

And the suspects? One guy in a blue tank top and a woman rocking a pink dress and matching shower cap. Yeah, you heard me. A shower cap. I don’t know if this was some sort of Bonnie and Clyde cosplay, but it sure wasn’t subtle. Blurry photos of these two have been making the rounds since, and honestly, if you’re gonna steal a train, maybe don’t dress like you’re about to hit the club or the shower.

I’ll admit, when I first heard about this, I thought, No way do you pull off a subway heist unless you’ve got some background in driving these things. I figured one of them must’ve been an ex-train operator, right? Wrong. By the time the NYPD arrested a suspect for criminal mischief and reckless endangerment, we learned it wasn’t some seasoned criminal mastermind. It was a 17-year-old girl. Yup, just a teenager pulling off what sounds like a rejected plot from Ocean’s 11.

Here’s the wild part—this isn’t even the first time someone’s stolen a train for a joyride. Florida (because of course Florida) had its own version of Grand Theft Loco, when a thief hijacked a 120-ton locomotive for a joyride. They drove it for seven miles, crossing public roads like it was just another day, then abandoned it like a kid who got bored with a new toy. Somehow, they managed to rack up $60,000 in damage to the equipment in the cab without derailing the thing. Now that’s a feat.

The damage from our NYC duo’s crash hasn’t been fully tallied yet, but I’m willing to bet they won’t be winning any prizes for their brief, ill-fated trip down the tracks.

But if you think this will stop the next train-jacking… just wait. With the way things are going, we should all be keeping an eye on the platforms because you never know who might be revving up to steal the next one.
