Hi,
I've been doing some looking around and found this (unfortunately now over) eBay listing for plans for a subway car. Scroll down to see the description.

The little book incouded HO and O scale drawings. If you could obtain plans like this and have them enlarged to your 44" length size you'd have a good start for the body. I assume you plan to make them operational so they move? You mentioned the subway cars are intended for a film...can you consider smaller cars thart are commercially available? As part of my looking around today I saw a few Youtube videos of subway themed layouts that looked pretty cool.
best wishes!
Ralph
