In the rail yards of Queens, New York City, contractors repair and rebuild the city's subway cars, but these lucrative contracts are rife with corruption. When Leo Handler gets out of prison, he returns to find his aunt married to Frank Olchin, one of the big contractors who is battling a minority-owned firm for contracts. Leo's best friend Willie Gutierrez works for Frank as his bag man and heads a crew that sabotages the work of the Puerto Rican-owned firm. Desperate for a job, Leo agrees to be Willie's backup. However, things go awry one night when a cop identifies Leo, making him a target and forcing him to consider those he can still trust, including his ailing mom and cousin Erica.
