'Train' doesn't stop here

The ending to Money Train, which marks the third pairing of Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes (after 1986's Wildcats and 1992's White Men Can't Jump), may change tracks before it pulls into theaters on Nov. 22. The Columbia film, about an attempt to hijack the New York City subway, originally finished with female lead Jennifer Lopez forcefully decking Robert (Baretta) Blake's bad cop. Although test audiences cheered, Harrelson, on a two-day leave from Kingpin, and Snipes, now at work on The Fan, came to New York recently to shoot a new ending. Was there concern that a buddy pic should end on a more macho note? ''No, I don't think so,'' says coproducer Doug Claybourne, who wouldn't divulge the new conclusion. ''They're going to add a couple of different elements to see if it tests better.''
